27 weeks pregnant, HC gave permission for abortion, baby born alive

A woman had to have an abortion in the 27th week, because her condition was not good at all. The Bombay High Court had also given permission for her abortion, but during this time the child was born and the surprising thing is that the child is alive.

A very surprising case has come to light in Mumbai. Here recently the court had given permission for abortion of a woman, but during the abortion itself the child was born and that too alive. The woman was 27 weeks pregnant, but had several physical problems, including a hole in her heart. In such a situation, the doctors had asked her to have an abortion as soon as possible, but for this the permission of the court was necessary, because it was a rare case. Legally, only a maximum of 24 weeks old pregnancy is allowed to be terminated, but the woman's pregnancy had exceeded that.

High court allowed abortion

Then on July 31, the woman along with her husband reached KEM Hospital in Parel in an ambulance. By then his condition had become critical. There the couple was told that along with a hole in the heart, there are many other problems, in such a situation, if the pregnancy is continued, then the life of the woman can be in danger. In such a situation, the woman and her husband reached the High Court for permission to have an abortion. The complete condition of the woman was told in the court and the report of the doctors was submitted. Seeing the full report and the threat to the life of the woman, the High Court allowed the abortion.
