A 24-year-old woman died after an illegal abortion was performed at her home in Pune, Maharashtra. In connection with the incident, authorities have arrested her husband and father-in-law, as well as her mother-in-law. Investigations found that the four-month-old foetus had been buried on the family's property. A private doctor who was summoned to do the surgery is currently under police investigation, reported ANI.
