A pregnant Albanian woman watches her baby in the monitor as a doctor performs a sonogram in Tirana on November 9, 2011. In Albania, abortion was legalised on the eve of the Communist regime’s fall in the 1990s. Since then, it has become almost a favourite method to chose the sex of its child, several local rights groups warn. According to a law adopted in April 2002, sex-selective abortion is forbidden, but there are no specific sanctions for breaching the law, experts say.
