According to Sandra Rose the Federal prosecutors arrested Dr. Fakhruddin Attar, 53, and his wife Farida Attar, 50, on Friday and charged them with conspiracy to commit female genital mutilation surgery and aiding and abetting female genital mutilation (FGM).
Female genital mutilation (FGM) involves the total or partial removal of the clitoris and sometimes the labia. The purpose of the surgery is to reduce female sexual pleasure so girls will grow up to remain faithful to their husbands.
According to WXYZ, the illegal procedures took place at Dr. Fakhruddin Attar’s Livonia clinic, which was raided by the feds on Friday morning.
The children told federal agents that their parents told them they were taking a “‘special’ girls trip.” The girls were accompanied by their mothers to a motel room outside of Detroit, where they were met by Nagarwala. The doctor told each child that she was giving them an injection to “get the germs out”. After the procedure, one little girl told investigators she was in pain and could “barely walk”.
“According to the complaint, despite her oath to care for her patients, Dr. Nagarwala is alleged to have performed horrifying acts of brutality on the most vulnerable victims,” said Acting Assistant Attorney General Blanco.
