Strict abortion laws in a West African nation is making
women seek clandestine abortions and as a last resort kill their own infants,
by either dumping them is septic tanks or in the wild forest for animals to
eat.
Senegal is where such weird things are happening, according
to a new report by human rights groups.
Backstreet abortions and infanticide, a consequence of the
West African nation’s abortion legislation, account for 38 percent of detention
cases among women in Senegal, the report said.
