Article Photos: Thousands march for abortion rights in Ireland


An Indian man and Irish woman light candles as abortion rights protesters march through central Dublin Saturday, Nov. 17, 2012, demanding that Ireland's government create a law defining when abortions can be performed to save a woman's life. Ireland has been shocked by the death of Savita Halappanavar, a 31-year-old Indian dentist who died of blood poisoning after being denied an abortion in a Dublin hospital last month.
