Story here. Excerpt:

'There were 'missed opportunities' to save a 10-year-old from an infection possibly caused by a circumcision carried out in Africa, an inquest heard today.

Stanley Chola, 10, from Whitley, Berkshire underwent the procedure in Zimbabwe during the summer holidays.

Nearly two months later on October 13, 2013 he went into septic shock and died in hospital.

At the time it was thought the infection might have been caused by an injury to his knee, either from being hit with a hockey stick by another pupil or while playing football.'
