<p>A woman living in Ireland who travelled overseas to terminate a pregnancy while in remission from cancer had her human rights violated because of the abortion ban, European judges have ruled</p>
<p>The Lithuanian woman was one of three unnamed women from Ireland fighting a landmark legal battle to have abortion laws overturned.</p>
<p>The other two had their case dismissed by the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg.</p>
<p>The women, known only as A, B and C, took a case against the Irish government claiming restrictions on abortion stigmatised and humiliated them, and risked damaging their health.</p>
<p>The third applicant, the only successful one, claimed her life had been put at risk by being forced to travel to England for the procedure.</p>
<p>The court was told she was worried her pregnancy would cause a relapse of cancer. She also said she was concerned about a risk to the foetus if she carried to full term and claimed she could not obtain clear advice on the subject.</p>
<p>Abortion is only allowed in Ireland if there is a real and substantial risk to the life of the expectant mother.</p>
<p>Despite referenda and court rulings on the issue since the early 1980s, governments have not enacted legislation regulating the constitutionally guaranteed right.</p>
