Abortion pills bought online - pro-choice activists hit out at police raids

Abortion pills bought online - an emotive topic that has sparked much debate here. The police have been criticised by campaigners for their investigations, with claims that over the past few weeks, pro-choice activists have had their homes and offices raided, some with warrants to seize their phones, laptops and bank statements. Others have been invited for questioning. Campaigners say this violates the right of women to protect their own physical and mental health. Earlier in the week organisers held what they called 'a Protest organised against police harassment of Pro-Choice Activists' - outside Belfast City Hall.
