A five-year-old girl critically injured in the attack on the Australian embassy in Jakarta is among victims airlifted to Singapore for medical treatment, said a report Friday. Elisabeth Manuela Banbin Musu sustained multiple injuries and surgeons will need to remove a blood clot in her brain, according to Channel News Asia. The girl had been waiting with her mother Maria Eva outside the embassy to collect her first passport when the car bomb went off. Her mother, an Indonesian who is married to an Australian policeman, was killed instantly. The girl is among several casualties who arrived in Singapore for medical treatment. She was accompanied by a paediatrician and two nurses from the International SOS who had helped evacuate her from Jakarta. Elisabeth was badly injured by shrapnels. But doctors are optimistic about her chances for a full recovery. Another casualty, a Canadian man who suffered cuts from the bomb blast, had taken a commercial flight into Singapore for treatment. --More 1855 Local Time 1555 GMT
