Legal Skirmish: Immigration And Refugee

External Genitalia Dept: The family has lost one legal skirmish but won a second, and is now preparing for a hearing before the Immigration and Refugee Board IRB to find out if the mother and daughters -- now aged eight, 14 and 16 -- can remain in Canada, according to Vancouver Sun. Both Naomi Koin and her husband come from tribes in Nigeria that continue to circumcise young girls -- a practice that includes the partial or complete removal of external genitalia and a Metro Vancouver mother is waging a legal battle to keep her three daughters in Canada to protect them from the controversial tradition of female genital circumcision in their native Nigeria. Their incredible journey is spelled out in documents, at the Federal Court of Canada, that tell a tale as inspirational as it is heartbreaking. As reported in the news.
