It's from talking to people who work for the anti-infibulation groups or know people who do and reading the papers, mostly: whenever they catch somebody doing that here they seem to be an African from one of the former French colonies on the coast rather than an Asian. I take it's that not the case in Italy?
Honestly I do not know I checked the statistical archive for crimes but I guess it's included in the mayem's statistic there is no separated data even if there is a special law that tackles specifically this crime (also if committed abroad by residents in Italy), but even if there were statistics I guess they would be misleading as there is virtually no immigration here from middle eastern countries so I guess africans or people from pakistan and bangladesh, maybe australian that have different immigrant composition would see it differently.
I guess the results on this kind of consideration are affected by the process enforcing a certain law has, I mean I guess to catch them somone has to report or tip what's happening, so it might be you just listen about those comunities where someone in the family informs authorities. I have a suspect it might be like sexual violence if you see official statistics it's almost not existent in saudi arabia or united emirates but when you know they incarcerate whoever denunces a rape for adultery and the only legally valid proof is to have five arab male witnesses you might guess the problem is simply not reported by the victims. I persoanlly think the same happens with female genital mutilations due to it's sexual nature, in africa you have movements that are raising the problem and fighting it, I read an article where they said in Egypt the situation is rapidly changing due to education efforts.
