A court in Chandigarh had in October last year convicted two brothers after finding them guilty of raping their 10-year-old niece, who delivered a baby in August, 2017, after the Supreme Court dismissed her abortion plea.On July 28 last year, the Apex Court had dismissed a plea seeking its nod to terminate the 32-week pregnancy after taking note of a medical report that abortion was neither good for the girl nor for the foetus.
