The magistrates of the first chamber of Mexico's Supreme Court of Justice ruled on Wednesday that it is unconstitutional to penalize rape victims who abort after the first 90 days of pregnancy. Rebeca Ramos, director of the Information Group on Chosen Reproduction (GIRE) explains the position of the Court before this resolution, which allowed the protection of a person with severe cerebral palsy and in poverty conditions who was raped when she was a minor. The director of a hospital in the Mexican state of Chiapas denied the woman the possibility of terminating her pregnancy.
