A draft document by the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) on “honour-based abuse, forced marriages, and harmful practices”, classes circumcision as a potential crime alongside breast flattening, virginity testing, hymenoplasty and exorcisms.
According to the Office for National Statistics, since 2001 there have been seven deaths of boys under 18 where circumcision was a factor. At least three of these involved babies who bled to death: Celian Noumbiwe in 2007; Goodluck Caubergs in 2010; and Angelo Ofori-Mintah in 2012.

Jonathan Arkush, a former president of the Board of Deputies of British Jews and co-chair of Milah UK, which promotes and protects the right of the Jewish community to carry out religious circumcision, said the wording in the draft CPS guidance was misleading.
“To suggest that circumcision is in itself a harmful practice, is deeply pejorative and misplaced,” he said.

He [Arkush] added: “We shall certainly be talking to the CPS. I would very much expect that final draft not to include it, as it is so obviously incorrect and/or misleading
Das werden die bestimmt wieder hinbiegen. Hat doch bis jetzt noch immer geklappt.
