Jumana Nagarwala, 44, of Northville Michigan is accused of performing female genital mutilation on underage girls.
According to a criminal complaint, Nagarwala performed the procedure on girls ages six to eight years old at a medical clinic in Livonia.
Some of the children were brought from out of state for the illegal procedure.
Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) is considered the complete removal or partial removal of the clitoris, known as a clitoridectomy.
FGM is internationally recognized as a violation of the human rights of women and girls.
The investigation revealed that in one particular case, a 7-year-old was brought by her family from Minnesota.
An investigation into phone records revealed their location.
The child was interviewed on April 10.
She stated that she was brought to Detroit for “special girls trip.”..."
