The Delhi High Court granted a pregnant mother’s request to abort her baby at 33 weeks, Bar and Bench reports, reversing a hospital committee ruling that would have protected the child. A 33-week abortion is performed by induction. First, the abortionist injects the baby’s heart with digoxin to “ensure fetal demise” — or, stripped of […]

Even in the second and third trimesters, abortionists will perform abortions on healthy mothers carrying healthy babies — and will falsify bogus “health” reasons on the paperwork.
