== Commitment against the circumcision of boys ==

Prior to the enforcement of [[German Circumcision Act|§ 1631d BGB]] Putzke has represented the legal opinion in several scientific articles that the not medically necessary [[MGM|circumcision of boys]] is an element of crime of assault, including the religious [[circumcision]] of boys. He welcomed and encouraged the spread of the judgment<ref>http://dejure.org/dienste/vernetzung/rechtsprechung?Gericht=LG%20K%F6ln&Datum=07.05.2012&Aktenzeichen=151%20Ns%20169/11</ref> of the District Court of Cologne which classified a male [[circumcision]] for religious reasons as unlawful assault.

The German Bundestag did not follow Putzke's argument and decided on [[2012-12-12|December 12, 2012]] after a controversial debate with 434 to 100 votes with 46 abstentions, to enforce a law that allows boy's [[circumcision]] under certain conditions. Putzke estimated the law is unconstitutional and accused the Bundestag to habe created 'legal nonsense', e.g. as far as the [[Mohel clause|purpose clause]] is concerned.
