Bombay HC allows woman to abort 25-week 'abnormal' foetus
The Bombay High Court on Monday granted permission to a woman to abort her 25-week foetus, which has been detected with structural defects in the cerebellum. The court said it was difficult to refuse permission because it's certain that if given birth, the child will be handicapped for life. Notably, the law doesn't allow abortion after 20 weeks of pregnancy.
