SC protects privacy of woman, rejects her plea to terminate over 25-week pregnancy

A vacation bench said, “We have perused the report dated 24th May, 2024, submitted by All India Institute of Medical Sciences. We are not quoting what is mentioned in the report for protecting the privacy of the petitioner. But in light of the report, we cannot permit termination of pregnancy in the facts of the case." The apex court’s order came on a plea of the woman, who claimed that she had come to know about her pregnancy only on May 17.
