In a landmark judgement, the Supreme Court of Mexico decriminalised abortion on Thursday (September 7) across the country. “The First Chamber of the Court ruled that the legal system that penalises abortion in the Federal Criminal Code is unconstitutional since it violates the human rights of women and people with the capacity to gestate,” said the Supreme Court on social media.
