Female genital mutilation involves ritual intimate cutting, sometimes without anaesthetic

LONDON: A UK court has banned an Indian-origin family from flying their baby daughter to India because she is at risk of being subjected to an "utterly unacceptable" genital mutilation procedure.

A judge at Manchester County and Family Court ruled yesterday that the child, who will turn two this year, is at risk because religious and cultural pressure had overridden her mother's "maternal instinct".

Social workers in the UK believe three other girls from the family, which cannot be named for legal reasons, had been subjected to a similar procedure.

Female genital mutilation (FGM), also known as female circumcision, involves ritual intimate cutting, sometimes without anaesthetic, and has been banned in the UK.

Judge Robert Jordan made an "FGM protection order" in Manchester after a private family court hearing, 'Manchester Evening News' reported.

The judge was told that the baby's three older sisters had previously been taken to India so that FGM could be carried out on them. He made the protection order after concluding that the little girl was also at risk and needed protecting.

"The effect of the cultural pressure overrode the mother's maternal instinct. As a consequence of religious and cultural pressure the mother facilitated the mutilation of her children," he noted.


"That cultural pressure still exists in their country of origin and undoubtedly in this country," he added.

FGM protection orders came into force in Britain three years ago and give police and local authorities power to intervene to prevent such procedures. Parents can be barred from taking children abroad and passports can be seized and face prosecution if they breach it.

According to UK research, FGM is less common in India and is more prevalent in around 28 African countries and in parts of the Middle and Far East.

In Britain, communities that have been identified as at risk of FGM include Somali, Kenyan, Ethiopian, Sierra Leonean, Sudanese, Egyptian, Nigerian, Eritrean, Yemeni, Kurdish and Indonesian women and girls.

It is believed to be a way of ensuring virginity and chastity and is used to safeguard girls from sex outside marriage and from having sexual feelings.

Although FGM is practised by secular communities, it is most often claimed to be carried out in accordance with religious beliefs.

I though India was a civilized country? Female genital mutilation is a shocker the more I read about India the more I understand why my partner was sexually assaulted in India and the more I hate the country.


Is female circumcision even a thing outside of Africa?
 
. . .
Why are Indians saying it is a Muslim thing? The fact is these people are Indian origin they are a sick country India does not care about females and woman's rights.
First time came to know that it is practiced here.

A sect in the muslim community , the Bohras practice it in India. We are planning to ban it, but religious folk tend to be violent about their beliefs.

Reported. It's against Islam to do this barbaric act.
Instead of lying here, your could easily look up the hadiths where it says that female circumcision is permitted .
Apparently , there are plenty of references on this page.

Just because you don't know about it doesn't mean it's not happening. A report from 2011 and I am sure this practice hasn't been stopped in past 7 years either.

So a Hindu knows more about my religion than me. I told you that it is against the teachings of our deen. Anything that risks one's life is haram.
