Extract:<\/p>\n

\u00ab\u00a0On or about 3rd May 2009, one E.A. who is the mother of the 1st Petitioner, gave birth to a baby who was born with both male and female genitalia. On 10th May 2009, the 2nd Respondent, Kenyatta National Hospital, issued E.A with various documents used in the process of carrying out genitogram tests, x-rays and scans on that baby who was named Baby A for purposes of these proceedings and a question mark \u2018(?)\u2019 was inserted for the column indicating the child\u2019s sex. To-date, the child has never been issued with a birth certificate and in the Petition dated 24th May 2013, the Petitioners\u2019 claim that the entry of a question mark on the child\u2019s medical and treatment notes offends the child\u2019s rights to legal recognition, erodes its dignity and violates the right of the child not to be subjected to inhuman and degrading treatment as guaranteed under Section 4 of the Children Act as well as Articles 27, 28 and 29 of the Constitution.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n
