BERLIN, GERMANY – MARCH 03: Instruments used in the Jewish circumcision ceremony lie on a table prior to the circumcision of baby infant Mendl Teichtal at the Chabad Lubawitsch Orthodox Jewish synagogue on March 3, 2013 in Berlin, Germany. Germany’s parliament, the Bundestag, passed a law affirming the legality of circumcision in December after a Cologne court called the practice into question in May of 2012, a ruling that sparked outrage among Germany’s Jewish and Muslim population.

The boy, who has not been named, was rushed to a hospital in Kuala Lumpur after doctors at a suburban clinic in Taman Cheras Utama botched the procedure.

It’s not entirely clear how the mistake was made, but it seems as though the surgeon’s laser scalpel may have slipped during the procedure on December 20.

According to Malaysia’s Star newspaper, the boy’s father was waiting patiently outside when he was told that part of his son’s penis had been accidentally severed.

After being rushed to the Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Hospital, and then to another specialist hospital in the city, doctors managed to successfully reattach the two parts of the boy’s penis.

The dad has since filed a complaint with the police.

The Star did not name the surgeon responsible, but said he had a medical degree from Pakistan as well as 21 years of experience.

However the clinic, which had been operating for 15 years, was found to have not been registered with Malaysia’s Health Ministry.|metro.co.uk
