10 YEAR OLD RAPE VICTIM DENIED ABORTION BIRTHS BABY GIRL IN INDIA

By

A10-year-old rape victim whose plea for an abortion was rejected by India's Supreme Court has given birth to a baby girl in the northern Indian CITY of Chandigarh, a doctor said on Thursday.

The girl, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was allegedly raped repeatedly by her uncle for several months. The crime came to light when the victim was taken to hospital on complaining of stomach ache last month where she was found to be over 30 weeks pregnant.

On July 28, the Supreme Court had dismissed a plea seeking its nod for terminating the 32-week-old pregnancy of the rape survivor after taking note of a medical report that abortion was neither good for the girl nor for the foetus.



Last month her parents asked the country's top court to allow her to have a late-term abortion but the request was turned down.

Indian law does not allow medical terminations after 20 weeks unless there is a threat to either the life of the mother or her child.

"She gave birth through C-section today. Both the girl and her baby are doing fine," doctor Dasari Harish told AFP.

"The surgery was uneventful. There were no complications whatsoever. The baby weighed 2.2 kilos (4.8 pounds) and is in the neonatal ICU for now."

The Press Trust of India news agency said the girl was unaware that she had delivered a child and the parents had decided to put the baby up for adoption.

Her parents have told her that she had a stone in her stomach and had undergone surgery to remove it, PTI said.

India has a grim record of sexual assaults on minors with 20,000 cases of rape or sexual assaults reported in 2015, according to government data.

THE INVINCIBLE WOUNDS OF SYRIA'S CHILDREN

By
March 14th,2017 The physical devastation left by the Syrian war is tangible. But a less visible, more insidious damage is hurting the country's most vulnerable. Save the Children's 'Invisible Wounds' report found that Syria's children are suffering from a condition called 'toxic stress' , due to living in an almost constant state of fear and terror. In order to visualize the invisible, the NGO commissioned photographer Nick Ballon and conceptual artist Alma Haser to create a series of animated portraits and short videos. Ballon's thoughtful photos combined with Haser's paper manipulation techniques – folding, crumpling, ripping and origami – attempt to show the intense psychological pain these children suffer. Ballon shot the portraits of the refugee children near the Turkish-Syrian border. He got to know them at their orphanage, in a place where they felt comfortable, but shot the portraits on the streets. "The lighting was the key element,...
