There has been a blanket ban on abortion in El Salvador since 1998.[2] Five other Latin American countries have similar bans, including Chile, Haiti, Honduras, Nicaragua and Suriname.[3] Early lifeRivera is from a small village called La Libertad. During the Civil War, her mother vanished; Rivera was 8 years old at the time. At the age of 8, Rivera was attacked and raped by a stranger while walking at night. After this incident, she and her brother went to live in an orphanage near the capital. She completed high school education [2] and worked in factories and retail jobs. In May 2005, she had a baby boy. The relationship between Rivera and the baby's father broke down due to domestic violence. Rivera and her ex-mother-in-law maintained a strong relationship and brought up Rivera's son together.[2] Court caseThe judge in Rivera's case noted two pieces of evidence before giving a guilty verdict. Rivera's factory boss gave a testimony of how Rivera had confided in him in January 2011 suspecting she was pregnant. The judge concluded that Rivera was, therefore, aware of her pregnancy. The baby's autopsy report stated that the baby had been full term and died of prenatal asphyxiation. The judge inferred that the cause of asphyxiation was intentional smothering. He sentenced Rivera to 40 years imprisonment. Rivera disputed the judge's decision, saying had she known about the pregnancy she would have done everything possible to protect the baby.[2] PrisonWhile in the overcrowded prison Rivera was often called "baby killer". She did small jobs in the prison such as cleaning toilets and collecting rubbish to earn some money. During her time in prison, she saw her son twice. The CFDA mounted a legal defence against Rivera's imprisonment but these appeals were rejected.[2] According to Amnesty International, Rivera shared a prison cell with 250 people. On 20 May 2016, she was release from prison following a court decision to overturn her conviction.[4] After prisonOn her release, she thanked Amnesty International supporters for campaigning for her release;
26 women have been imprisoned for inducing miscarriages and are serving between 30 and 40-year prison sentences.[5] Such cases, some known as the "Las 17", have received media attention in El Salvador and internationally. She was the third woman of "Las 17" to be released.[6] Following her release she found it difficult to get a job and was known as a "baby killer".[5] The Attorney General said the decision to release Maria Teresa Rivera would be appealed.[4] Swedish authorities granted Rivera asylum on 17 March 2017. She was the first person granted asylum in Sweden based on persecution following defying an abortion ban.[5] Rivera was given immigration housing for herself and her son by the Swedish government.[1] References1. ^1 {{Cite news|url=https://www.elle.com/uk/life-and-culture/culture/longform/a37441/first-abortion-refugee-maria-teresa-rivera-el-salvador/|title=What It's Like To Be The World's First Abortion Refugee|first=Katie|last=O'Malley|date=1 August 2017|work=Elle|accessdate=20 October 2018}} {{improve categories|date=November 2018}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Rivera, María Teresa}}2. ^1 2 3 4 {{Cite web|url=https://www.aljazeera.com/indepth/features/2016/10/el-salvador-maria-teresa-rivera-jailed-freed-161024082718800.html|title=El Salvador: Maria Teresa Rivera jailed and freed|last=Lakhani|first=Nina|website=Al Jazeera|accessdate=20 October 2018}} 3. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2015/03/el-salvador-and-las-17/|title=El Salvador and 'Las 17'|website=Amnesty|accessdate=22 November 2018}} 4. ^1 2 {{Cite web|url=https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/campaigns/2016/05/el-salvador-maria-teresa-free/|title=El Salvador - Maria Teresa thanks supporters after release from jail|website=Amnesty|accessdate=22 November 2018}} 5. ^1 2 {{Cite news|url=https://www.reuters.com/article/us-el-salvador-abortion/sweden-welcomes-salvadoran-woman-wrongly-jailed-for-abortion-in-asylum-first-idUSKBN1771QP|title=Sweden welcomes Salvadoran woman wrongly jailed for abortion in asylum first |last=Moloney |first=Anastasia|work=Reuters|date=5 April 2017|accessdate=22 November 2018}} 6. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/el-salvador-where-women-are-jailed-for-40-years-for-the-crime-of-having-a-miscarriage-a7053501.html|title=Meet the woman jailed for 40 years for suffering a miscarriage|first=Andrew |last= Buncombe|work=The Independent|date=28 May 2016|accessdate=22 November 2018}} 5 : 21st-century Salvadoran women|Human rights activists|Year of birth missing (living people)|Living people|Salvadoran expatriates |
