A South Korean court has acquitted a woman previously convicted of murdering a baby she delivered in hospital - the latest twist in a case that has gripped the country and fuelled debate about its murky abortion laws. The woman had wanted to terminate her pregnancy at 36 weeks, but prosecutors said the baby was born alive and later killed. The woman, identified only by her surname Kwon, was convicted of murder alongside two doctors in March. While abortions were decriminalised in South Korea 2019, there is no clear regulation on how far into pregnancy it can be carried out. Kwon's case has cast a spotlight on the legal vacuum surrounding abortions in South Korea since the country's Constitutional Court removed a long-standing abortion ban in 2019.
