Woman jailed for seven years for handing over girl, 3, for female genital mutilation

Amina Noor, a woman from Harrow, London, has been sentenced to seven years in prison for assisting in the female genital mutilation of a child in Kenya 18 years ago. She is the first person to be convicted of this crime in the UK.
Noor took the child to a private house where the procedure took place. The victim, now 21, suffered physical and emotional pain as a result.
FGM is a harmful practice that is often carried out without the person's consent and can lead to long-term health problems. Noor's conviction is intended to encourage others to report similar crimes.
