The Supreme Court has allowed a 14-year-old rape survivor to terminate her 30-week pregnancy, overturning an order by the Bombay High Court. The court called it an "exceptional case" and allowed the abortion on the basis of a hospital report. Indian law requires the court's permission to undergo abortion beyond 24 weeks of pregnancy.
