For the record, I thought abortion is illegal in almost all cases in Argentina, so this is a special situation I would think. They are not as lenient as what I would think the laws are in the USA, Canada and North Korea are. It was covered in forum, they voted to keep abortion illegal except in special cases like rape, etc.
The Doctor is making the right decision, I'm surprised a judge would even find someone guilty of this. Picture of doctor at link.
