The Irish Government won a 2006 European Court of Human Rights case against a woman on the right to terminate a non-viable pregnancy by arguing it would not have prevented the move if asked.

IRISH women pregnant with babies with potentially fatal abnormalities should be able to have an abortion in Ireland, the European Court of Human Rights will be told today.

A WOMAN who was pregnant with twins, one a dead foetus, the other abnormal, is suing the Government for denying her the right to an abortion.
