- Italy’s data protection watchdog on Thursday fined the city of Rome for inscribing the names of women who had abortions on the graves of foetuses.
This provoked outrage from women’s rights associations and the women involved, who denounced the violation of their privacy. The watchdog body also issued a warning to Rome’s primary health insurance fund, for breaching the law on the protection of data relating to privacy, by sending the AMA the identity of women who had undergone an abortion.
Women’s rights association Differenza Donna president Elisa Ercoli, quoted by the Italian news agency AGI, said: “We had to wait a long time, but today justice has been done for so many women and for all those who knew that these wrongs had been committed.”
