Women protest in favour of changes to Chile's anti-abortion laws Women's rights groups protested in Chile on Thursday in support of a change in Chile's conservative anti-abortions laws, which would allow women to abort in a three case scenario: risk for the mother's health, foetus non viability and rape. The bill has been shepherded through the National Congress by president Michelle Bachelet, but hit a setback on Thursday when one deputy abstained from a vote, kicking the bill to a cross-party committee for review.
