The news about a 10-year old girl being allegedly raped several times and impregnated by her uncle has been the talk of the entire nation for the past few days.
More so with the court in Chandigarh rejecting the family's plea for abortion has left them in a dilemma. The verdict was given in keeping the Medical Termination of Pregnancy Act, 1971, which draws the line for abortion of the foetus at 20 weeks.
The plea was rejected by the court on the grounds of health risk of the victim. Ultrasound reports of the 10 year old girl confirmed that she was 26 weeks pregnant.
So what next? What could be the consequences? Experts opine that in such cases lifelong psychological and physical effect are inevitable.
We have listed a few of the dangerous consequences that the girl might undergo in the long term. Take a look.
