The orders of the Polish Court Re -trial to the debtor to help end pregnancy Poland
The Polish Court ordered the re -trial if an activist was convicted of helping women end her pregnancy at a symbolic moment of the Movement of Abortion of Poland.
Justyna Wydrzyńska was sentenced to community service in 2023 in the first case of this as an activist in the European Union country, which suffers from a semi -limited abortion and assistance in abortion.
The Central Governance Party did not receive adequate support in Parliament to pay by pledge before the elections to reduce these laws. On Thursday, the Court of Appeal canceled “the disputed judgment in its entirety.” Judge Rafale Kanyuk was martyred by doubting the neutrality of the judge who headed him who threw the verdict in 2023.
Wydrzyńska supporters – including from their non -profit organization from the Dream Dream team, which help women perform abortion – in court.
“For me, this is not a victory,” said Wydrzyńska to Agence France Presse after the verdict. “The only result I consider a victory today if this court has said:” Yes, you are innocent. “
There was a handful of anti -abortion activists outside the building, and they read the Catholic prayers.
Currently, women cannot get a hospital abortion only if the pregnancy is caused by sexual assault or incest or constitutes a direct threat to the mother’s life or mother’s health. The abortion is punished for up to three years in prison.
A network of abortion rights, unlimited abortion, said it had dealt with “a huge number of inquiries from people who seek to support abortion” in Poland or abroad. In 2024, “the network supported 47,000 people in accessing abortion,” he said in a report released last month.
He added: “Abortion in Poland is a daily truth,” and added that up to 150,000 abortion was conducted every year in the Catholic country mostly.
But according to official figures, only about 780 of these were implemented in Polish hospitals in the first ten months of 2024.
In August, the Prime Minister acknowledged that there was no “majority” to provide his party’s pledge to allow abortion until the twelfth week of pregnancy in the current parliamentary period. A senior legislator announced last month that working to relax in the bases, some of the most important Europe, will not resume until after the presidential elections scheduled for May.
Four draft laws were discussed to reduce the abortion law in a parliamentary committee, but even if they obtained the green light from the legislators, the conservative president in Poland, Doda, indicated that he would attend them.
