>> Mumbai couple wants abortion, court orders more tests
>> By Indo-Asian News Service on Friday, August 1, 2008
>> Filed Under: Health News
>>
>> The Bombay High Court Friday ordered additional medical tests on a
>> 25-week pregnant woman after the couple petitioned for abortion
>> following doctors' opinion that the child, if born, would have
>> lifelong cardiac problems. Abortions after 20 weeks are not allowed
>> under the law, unless the pregnancy threatens the mother's life.
>>
>> A division bench, comprising Justice P.B. Mujumdar and Justice A.A.
>> Sayyad, said the doctors' team must give its clear and confirmed
>> opinion on the condition of the unborn child to enable the court take
>> a decision in the case.
>>
>> The couple,stockbroker Haresh Mehta and his wife Niketa have contended
>> that as per the doctors' opinion, the unborn child has a heart
>> blockage that would require a permanent pace-maker and the baby's
>> right and left ventricles are also interchanged.
>>
>> The case poses a direct challenge to the abortion law since Niketa is
>> now 25 weeks pregnant - well beyond the permissible limit for
>> abortion.
>>
>> The Mehtas said they have a relative whose child suffers a serious
>> congenital defect, causing trauma to the parents.
>>
>> They felt that instead of making their to-be-born child suffer with a
>> congenital heart problem all its life, it would be better to abort it.
>> But the couple was prevented by the law.
>>
>> The Bombay High Court will hear the case Monday.
>>
>> Haresh and Niketa, both 31, had a love marriage and were eagerly
>> anticipating the new arrival in the family.
>>
>> Later, they learnt that the unborn child suffers from certain defects
>> in the heart. They deliberated over it at length, sought medical
>> opinion from different doctors and then decided to go for an abortion.
