Victims from as far afield as Canada complained about fraudster Mohammed Alazawi, aged 54, who carried out a number of male circumcisions between October 2016 and January 2022 on baby boys and older male children.

The Crown Prosecution Service(CPS) said the defendant was able to carry out the procedures because non-therapeutic male circumcision is unregulated and is not required to be carried out by a medical practitioner.

However, he pretended to be a doctor resulting in parents consenting to the procedures being carried out on their children.
