A Kenyan nurse has been sentenced to death after being found guilty of carrying out an abortion five years ago on a woman who later bled to death.<\/p>\n
Abortions are illegal in Kenya, but a doctor is allowed to perform one if a woman’s life is in danger.<\/p>\n
Witnesses told the high court that Jackson Namunya Tali had agreed to help the woman, Christine Atieno, who wanted to terminated her early pregnancy.<\/p>\n
But Tali said Ms Atieno had sought help after a botched abortion elsewhere.<\/p>\n
