Her husband told authorities that he wanted her to go to a hospital for the abortion, but she decided to take the abortion pills at home instead, according to the report.

Neither Kushwaha nor her husband wanted the baby. The couple reportedly found out they were pregnant last week and decided to abort their unborn child because they already had an 11-month-old baby at home, Times Now News reports.

According to police, Kushwaha bought the abortion pills and took them at home without her husband’s knowledge; only after she began bleeding heavily did she tell him what she had done.
