“Why is a girl forced to have a child by a guy who raped her? What monster will come out of this girl’s womb?” asked President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva today (18) in an interview with the CBN radio newspaper. The president was responding about the bill being processed in Congress that equates abortion at 22 weeks’ gestation with homicide. Late-term abortion would be prohibited even in cases where there is no penalty for the crime of abortion. The Penal Code exempts abortion from the penalty in the case of a baby created by rape and in the case of danger to the mother’s life. The Federal Supreme Court approved the abortion of babies with anencephaly.
