Haute Cour de Londres: l’avortement jusqu’à la naissance de bébés trisomiques n’est pas discriminatoire

  • Heidi Crowter, une femme trisomique, a perdu l’action en justice dénonçant la législation permettant l’avortement de bébés trisomiques jusqu’à la naissance, qu’elle avait engagée devant la Haute Cour à l’encontre du gouvernement britannique
  • La vie des enfants sans handicap est protégée par la loi dès 24 semaines de grossesse
La déclaration suivante peut être attribuée à Robert Clarke, Directeur adjoint d’ADF International: “Toute vie humaine est précieuse. La législation internationale garantit clairement que les enfants handicapés ont le droit à un traitement égal et non discriminatoire. Il est profondément troublant, malgré les progrès accomplis partout dans le monde, que la loi britannique porte atteinte aux droits des personnes handicapées. À l’heure actuelle, la loi ne protège même pas leur droit à la vie alors qu’ils sont encore dans l’utérus, tandis qu’elle protège ce droit pour les enfants sans handicap. Nous sommes fortement déçus par la décision de la Haute Cour de Londres, qui ne reconnaît pas cette discrimination manifeste. Nous soutenons Heidi, qui veut continuer à se battre courageusement pour que justice soit rendue aux personnes porteuses d’un handicap, et nous espérons que cette décision sera contestée en appel.”

Statement of Faith

Based on our adherence to the inspired, infallible, inerrant, and authoritative Word of God in Scripture, we profess with the Christian Church throughout time and around the world the faith expressed in the Apostles’ Creed:

I believe in God, the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried;
On the third day he rose again;
he ascended into heaven,
he is seated at the right hand of the Father,
and he will come to judge the living and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic Church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting.
Amen.

Yahaya Sharif-Aminu

In March 2020, a dangerous mob burned down his house and the Hisbah religious police, an official authority in charge of enforcing Sharia law, arrested Yahaya. Shortly after, the young man was convicted in a Sharia court for his alleged “blasphemy” and sentenced to death by hanging. His Supreme Court appeal has the potential to overturn Sharia-based blasphemy laws in Northern Nigeria.
