Savita protesters demand more abortion reforms

PROTESTERS have demanded abortion law reform on the tenth anniversary of the death of a woman refused a termination while miscarrying.

Indian dentist Savita Halappanavar, 31, died in a Galway hospital in 2012 and her passing was one of the catalysts for abortion reform in Ireland.

Speakers at a march in Dublin called for what they termed the removal of barriers that are forcing some pregnant women to travel to access abortion.

Orla O'Connor, director of the National Women's Council, said Ms Halappanavar's death was a turning point in Ireland.
