Polish Court Convicts Activist for Providing Abortion Pills.

TL;DR Summary
A Polish court has convicted activist Justyna Wydrzyńska for supplying abortion pills to a pregnant woman and sentenced her to 30 hours of community service a month for eight months. The case sets a precedent in Poland, which already has some of the most restrictive abortion laws in Europe, and has been condemned by human rights groups. Abortion is only permissible in Poland if the pregnancy is a result of rape or incest or if the mother's life is considered to be at risk. The ruling Law and Justice party has pledged to tighten abortion laws since coming into power in 2015.
