We have the podcast of this week’s Mail & Guardian Newsroom show for your analytical pleasure. Feel free to listen on the page, or download for later listening.

This week on the M&G Newsroom, Sarah Evans and Chris Roper spoke to reporter Faranaaz Parker about government’s apparent inability to track the rising numbers in circumcision deaths around the country.

As Faranaaz discovered, government has widely condemned the spate of deaths related to circumcision rituals around the country. But few provinces are actually keeping clear records of the numbers. In the absence of reliable statistics, can government really do anything to prevent deaths at circumcision schools?
