Infant dies after parents performed circumcision at home, according to Italian media reports.
ROME — An infant boy in Italy has died as the result of a circumcision performed by his parents at home, according to Italian media reports on Sunday.
The prosecutor’s office in the northern province of Reggio Emilia has opened a manslaughter investigation, and the infant will undergo an autopsy. Circumcision is not practiced among Italy’s Roman Catholic majority. Many immigrants in Italy are Muslim and practice circumcision for cultural and religious reasons, but sometimes have trouble accessing the practice in hospitals.
