SEOUL: South Korea’s Constitutional Court has termed the law criminalizing abortion as unconstitutional, media reports said on Thursday.
This has been a landmark ruling that is likely to overturn a ban on abortion that had been in place since 1953.
The court said the ban on abortion, as well as a law that made doctors who conduct abortions with a woman’s consent liable to criminal charges, were both unconstitutional.
The court had previously upheld the abortion law in 2012. (Agencies)
