Doctors, others demand clearer Irish abortion law

11/15/2012 majac Your Health Matters

Protestors outside Leinster House in Dublin Wednesday Nov. 14, 2012 against the death in October of Savita Halappanavar, pictured, a dentist aged 31, who was 17 weeks pregnant, after suffering a miscarriage and septicaemia. The woman's husband Praveen Halappanavar claims she had complained of being in agonising pain while in Galway University Hospital. He has said that doctors refused to carry out a medical termination because the foetus's heartbeat was present. Ireland's constitution officially bans abortion, but a 1992 Supreme Court ruling found the procedure should be legalized for situations when the woman's life is at risk from continuing the pregnancy. (AP Photo/ Julien Behal, PA)Pressure mounted Thursday for the Irish government to draft a law spelling out when life-saving abortions can be performed — a demand that came after a pregnant woman who was denied an abortion died.
