Professor Eva Pajkrt:

That is how it is written down. It is actually illegal unless there is a crisis for the woman. The request comes from the woman and she is in despair. It is written down but I do not know how one would translate it. It is like a woman saying that she is in an emergency or crisis and does not see any other way out. It is taking the whole state of the woman into account, medical and psychological. Psychological pressures can be a huge burden.
