Somalia announces 1st female genital mutilation prosecution
Somalia will prosecute a female genital mutilation (FGM) case for the first time in the country's history after a 10-year-old girl died from the procedure last week. Deeqa Dahir Nuur suffered severe bleeding after her mother took her to a traditional cutter. Deputy PM Mahdi Mohamed Gulaid said that the practice is not a part of the Islamic religion.
