Description

Concerns over the safety of home circumcision. With the NHS saying it will only fund the procedure if it is needed for medical reasons, families wanting their baby boys circumcised are turning to private practitioners. But concerns are being raised about the quality of care being offered by some practitioners. We expose a doctor who was prepared to breach a GMC ban on him from carrying out home circumcisions. Also - the theft of arts and antiques in the UK. The scale of the criminal enterprise now outstrips the theft of cars. The police are setting up a new intelligence network to crack down on the international trade in stolen treasures.
