A pregnant 11-year-old girl in Argentina was forced to have a C-section, even though she and her family had been requesting an abortion for weeks, according to a human rights group
A pregnant 11-year-old girl in Argentina was forced to have a C-section after she and her family had been requesting an abortion for weeks, a human rights group said.
Last month, the girl and her mother asked medics in the northern province of Tucumán for an abortion after confirming that she was pregnant, local rights group ANDHES said. The group says the girl's pregnancy continued for several weeks before local authorities approved the procedure. A judge consulting on the case said earlier this week that the girl could receive an abortion, CNN affiliate TN reported.
