濠太剌利で、72歳の元産婆Kubra Magennisと（被害者のプライヴァシー保護のために名前が明かされていない）二児の母親とシーア派系セクトDawoodi Bohraの指導者Shabbir Mohammedbhai Vaziriが、７歳になった娘たちに「女性器切除」（割礼）*1を行ったとして、逮捕・起訴されていたが、３月18日、懲役15か月の判決が下された。これは濠太剌利におけるFGMに対する初めての刑事裁判であり、また有罪判決である。
Dawoodi Bohraは北アフリカに発し、現在は主に印度のグジャラート州とパキスタンのカラチを中心とするシーア派系のセクト。また、女性器切除を正規の教義に組み入れている唯一のイスラーム系セクトであるという。Wikipediaに曰く、

Khatna, currently categorized as the lowest form of female genital mutilation or Type 1 FGM is thought to be widely practised in the Bohra community, in most cases performed on girls around age 7. The practice may originate in North Africa, where the Dawoodi Bohras trace their origins, and is now considered "intrinsic to their identity". The Dawoodi Bohras are the only Muslim sect in India to practice it; it is mostly kept alive by women, with men "[seeming] unaware that their own daughters and sisters are undergoing the cut". A 2011 Internet petition, to be delivered to Syedna Mohammed Burhanuddin, was the first public protest against female genital mutilation to emerge from the Bohra community.In Australia, in November 2015, a Dawoodi Bohra sheikh along with 2 women were found guilty of genital mutilation of two young girls. The court convicted the three defendants after listening to wire-taps of their conversations. Medical evidence was inconclusive; Dr Susan Marks, the pediatrician who examined the girls, stated it was possible that the hood or partial cliterodectomy had been performed. There was, however, no obvious injury or scarring.
