DETROIT — Two Detroit-area women have been charged with allowing their daughters to undergo genital mutilation as federal authorities expand their case against members of a Muslim sect. A new indictment filed Wednesday raises the number of people charged in the case to six. The indictment also adds four girls from Michigan to the group of alleged victims. The Associated Press isn’t naming the two women to protect their daughters’ identities. The main defendant is Dr. Jumana Nagarwala, who is charged with cutting girls at a clinic after hours in suburban Detroit.
