A two-year-old boy has died and his baby brother narrowly survived life-saving surgery after allegedly botched circumcisions.
The boys were rushed to hospital after the procedures at a medical clinic in Perth’s southeast suburbs on Tuesday night.
The toddler was declared dead on arrival at the hospital’s emergency department and his brother rushed to Perth Children’s Hospital, Seven News reported.

There the little boy, believed to be seven or eight months old, had emergency surgery and spent the night in the ICU.
He is believed to be in a stable condition and recovering in hospital.
Homicide detectives were called in to investigate, but Western Australian Police said the two-year-old boy’s death is no longer being treated as suspicious.
‘It can be confirmed the boy underwent a medical procedure at a registered medical centre prior to his death,’ police said.
The investigation has been turned over to the coroner and a report will be prepared by police.
