The <a href=\"http:\/\/masvidaoficial.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fundaci\u00f3n M\u00e1s Vida<\/a>\u00a0(More Life Foundation) claims an abortion was committed on a woman who was 25 weeks pregnant solely because the preborn child had a disability.<\/p>\n<p>In December 2020, Argentina <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/breaking-argentina-legalizes-abortion\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">legalized abortion<\/a>\u00a0through 14 weeks of pregnancy, except in cases of rape or to save a mother&#8217;s life \u2014\u00a0though deliberately killing a child is never truly medically necessary. Ra\u00fal Magnasco, president of Fundaci\u00f3n M\u00e1s Vida, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.laprensa.com.ar\/502462-Desde-Mas-Vida-radicaron-una-denuncia-penal-por-un-aborto.note.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">filed a criminal complaint<\/a> in the Justice of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires, alleging an illegal eugenic abortion. It was said to be committed at the Hospital Universit\u00e1rio Saavedra, of the Center for Medical Education and Clinical Research (CEMIC) in Buenos Aires.<\/p>\n<p>According to the complaint <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gazetadopovo.com.br\/vida-e-cidadania\/breves\/movimento-pro-vida-denuncia-suposto-aborto-eugenico-e-ilegal-na-argentina\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">filed by Magnasco<\/a>, both the mother and preborn child were healthy. The only problem was a supposed malformation on the baby&#8217;s hand, so the group claims that the abortion was eugenic and discriminatory in nature. So far, the case has been presented to the National Criminal and Correctional Chamber and accepted by the Argentine Public Prosecutor&#8217;s Office.<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ:\u00a0<em><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/leader-argentina-dies-legally-taking-abortion-drug\/\">Pro-abortion leader in Argentina dies after legally taking drug to induce abortion<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"video-container\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"es\" dir=\"ltr\">Denuncia por aborto ilegal a un beb\u00e9 de 6 meses de gestaci\u00f3n en el CEMIC de Saavedra<br \/>Exigimos una pronta investigaci\u00f3n y condena a los culpables <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/yzmT7EOhc8\">pic.twitter.com\/yzmT7EOhc8<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; M\u00e1s Vida (@masvidaoficial) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/masvidaoficial\/status\/1396968918166687746?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 24, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/div>\n<p>A video condemning the abortion was posted on Twitter. \u201cIn a country where the inclusion of children with disabilities is proclaimed, we demand the investigation and the immediate conviction of those responsible,\u201d Magnasco said.
