## Transcript

A baby at the center of a deportation controversy in Australia will be able to stay in the country but only for now. One year old Asha has been recovering from burns she suffered while staying in an off- shore detention center on the nearby island of Nauru with her parents. Their tent caught on fire and the baby was rushed to a hospital in Brisbane for treatment. Aisha was born in Australia, but here parents are form Nepal and have been seeking asylum. The hospital refused to discharge Aisha if she was going to be sent back the off shore detention center because doctors said it was unsafe. The baby was finally discharged when the government said it would let the family stay in community detention in Australia.

However, officials say once the baby is recovered, she and her parents will be returned to detention in Nauru.
