Detectives are investigating the death of a baby boy who stopped breathing minutes after he was circumcised.
Amitai Moshe, then just seven days old, became ill while still at the north London synagogue where the ceremony had been performed.
He was taken to a nearby hospital but died the following week. Initial tests suggest that he suffered a fatal heart attack.
Jewish leaders have stressed that no link has been found between the circumcision ritual and Amitai's death.
However, police are treating the incident as unexplained and have appointed detectives from the Metropolitan Police Serious Crime Directorate, which includes child abuse investigators, to investigate.

Yeah, I do suppose having your dick cut off could be a traumatic experience for some people. Should make this barbaric practice illegal.
