SHE woke up strapped to a bed. There were sick and pregnant women lying everywhere around her: some sharing the 20 narrow beds that the 'hospital' provided, many others lying naked on the floor. This was a maternity ward with a difference: an extended cell within Insein prison, 10 kilometres north of Burma's capital, Rangoon. No drugs, no washing facilities... no swaddling clothes for the babes before they joined their mothers on the concrete floor.
