A CAUCASIAN MUFTI PROPOSED TO INTRODUCE A FEMALE CIRCUMCISION IN RUSSIA


Ismail Berdiev, the member of the Russian Presidential Council on Religion and the chairman of the North Caucasus Muslim Coordinating Center has proposed to introduce a female circumcision in Russia.

We need to circumcise all women to end depravity on Earth and reduce sexuality ... t's necessary to reduce women's sexuality. If this were applied to all women, it would be a good thing.” Berdiev said in his interview to the Interfax news agency.

Earlier the "Legal Initiative" initiative published a report, describing the practice of female circumcision in Dagestan region of the North Caucasus. The report describes the practice, wide spreaded in remote villages of Dagestan, where girls were circumcised mainly in the age of 3, sometimes in the age up to 12. Worth note, that this practice is most widespread in Africa.

In general the report has caused acute discussions and a strong reaction from human rights organizations. Few days later he took his words back, arguing that this is impossible to make such operation for all women.
