Monrovia – Dr. John Mulbah, one of Liberia’s leading Gynecologist, says there is increased medical complications for women who are mutilated or go through cutting in the Sande bush. FGM is the ritual cutting or removal of some or all external female genitalia, a practice observed throughout Liberia. He spoke at the Liberia Feminist Forum working session on the theme ‘Legal analysis of proposed Domestic Violence and Anti FGM bill’ on Wednesday in Monrovia. She said Liberia is a signatory to many laws that abolished FGM but it is still been practice. She added that the forum is aimed at reviewing some terminology in the proposed bill which is not stated clearly.
