Mike Pence asks Supreme Court to overturn abortion rights
Former US Vice-President Mike Pence has called on the Supreme Court to overturn the landmark 1973 Roe v Wade case that legalised abortion in the US.

Mr Pence said the ruling was "a misguided decision" that harmed millions of unborn babies.
If Roe v Wade is quashed, millions of women would lose access to abortions.
On Wednesday, the Supreme Court will hear arguments over a Mississippi law banning abortion after 15 weeks. A ruling is expected by next summer.
The ban includes abortions on pregnancies caused by rape or incest.
The law, however, has not been enforced because of a legal challenge from the state's only abortion provider.
At a news conference in Washington DC on Tuesday, Mr Pence said he hoped the Supreme Court will "make history" with a full reversal of Roe v Wade.
"We are asking the Supreme Court of the United States to overturn Roe v Wade and restore the sanctity of human life to the centre of American law," the former vice-president said.
Additionally, Mr Pence argued that the "fiat of unelected judges" is not reflective of popular opinion in the US.
He believes elected, state-level officials are better placed to write abortion laws for their own jurisdictions.
A nationwide ban on abortions is not on the horizon, but states might be given control over their own abortion laws.
Such a move would be "devastating" for low-income women, Katherine Franke, director of the center for gender and sexuality law at Columbia University, tells the BBC.
It would increase maternal mortality and poverty, she adds.
