New South Wales, Australia
A man has been arrested and charged in relation to the alleged female genital mutilation of an infant.
Officers from the Child Abuse Squad have been told that while holidaying overseas in February 2012 the man allegedly organised for his daughter, who was then nine-months-old, to undergo a procedure known as female circumcision.
NSW Police were alerted to the incident after the child's mother took her to a doctor about six months later.
Following investigations, police arrested a man yesterday (Tuesday 31 December 2013). He was subsequently charged with aid/abet/counsel or procure female genital mutilation.
The man was granted conditional bail and will appear in Manly Local Court on Tuesday 28 January 2014.
This is very good news. That he has been charged sends a message to others in Australia that such mutilation of little girls is wrong and will not be tolerated. Let's pray that this case is quickly processed and that there be significant punishment for the man.
Please continue to pray the 3:15 PM, the need grows more urgent everyday.
