The Sudanese doctor and potential clients discussed services, including a troubling case involving a five-year-old girl whose mother negotiated with the doctor to perform a circumcision operations.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The doctor allegedly quoted a fee of 3,000 Egyptian pounds for conducting the procedure at the child’s residence, highlighting a blatant disregard for Egyptian legal protocols.<\/p>\n

Government Response<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Egyptian government quickly responded to a surge in ads by Sudanese immigrants, offering female circumcision services, noting a serious violation of Egyptian law. Multiple lawmakers urgently petitioned the Egyptian Minister of Health to address this egregious violation. Dr. Hossam Abdel Ghaffar, spokesman for the Ministry of Health, stated that the Ministry had submitted a report to the Attorney General to investigate the reported incidents of circumcision.<\/p>\n

It was confirmed that Dr. Ismail is not registered with Egyptian medical authorities, a violation punishable by up to two years in prison. Furthermore, under Egyptian law, anyone found guilty of performing female genital mutilation faces up to five years’ imprisonment, stressing the severity of the offense.<\/p>\n
