Orissa HC Allows Pregnancy Termination for Rape Survivor

The Orissa High Court allowed a woman who was pregnant due to a sexual assault to end her pregnancy.

Normally, the pregnancy was too far along for this, but the court made an exception because of the special circumstances.

The court also ordered that a DNA test be done on the baby to help catch the person who hurt the woman.

The woman had already reported the crime to the police, and the court told the doctors to take care of her right away.

This decision helps protect the woman's rights and makes sure important evidence is saved for the trial.
