Abortion clinics are one of the most frequently visited public sites for victims of sex trafficking. Sending these women \u2014 or their pimps \u2014 abortion pills in the mail only keeps this horrific practice in the shadows, away from detection. And it potentially subjects them to forced abortion, an appalling human rights abuse that often leaves life-long trauma\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Right To Life UK spokesperson Catherine Robinson, said: \u201cIf the facts of this case are as described, it is utterly tragic. This woman was clearly in a highly abusive relationship with a man who forced her to end the lives of 14 of their own children. Cases like this show that for many women, abortion is not their choice to make, but something which they are forced to do\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><em>Editor&#8217;s Note: This article was originally <a href=\"https:\/\/righttolife.org.uk\/news\/woman-ends-her-life-after-being-forced-to-have-14-abortions\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">published<\/a> at Right to Life UK and is reprinted here with permission.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/liveactionnewsonline\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u201cLike\u201d Live Action News on Facebook<\/a>\u00a0for more pro-life news and commentary!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Right to Life UK) A woman from India has ended her own life after her partner of eight years forced her to have 14 abortions, according to her suicide note.
