Ten-year-old gives birth in India 🇮

A ten-year-old girl was forced to have the baby after India's Supreme Court ⚖ rejected 🚫 the family's plea for an abortion three weeks ago, based on the opinions of eight doctors and an examination of the girl‼️

The family did not approach the authorities about the girl's pregnancy until the 26th or 27th week, said Alakh Alok Srivastava, a lawyer ⚖ who represented the girl's family, to CNN in a previous interview.

"[The] first verdict the Supreme Court made was that the pregnancy cannot be terminated at this stage based on the opinions of the medical board," Srivastava said.
