| Description | A Church of England curate who says that doctors committed an "unlawful killing" by aborting a 24-week-old baby with a cleft palate won the right yesterday to challenge a police force's decision not to prosecute the doctors.
The abortion in question was carried out in 2001 on a woman from Herefordshire. Richard Gordon, QC, for Miss Jepson, said it could never be justified under the 1967 Abortion Act because a cleft lip and palate were not a serious handicap. |
