Surrogate death husband may sue Norway
Surrogate death husband may sue Norway
An Indian man whose wife died after giving birth to a Norwegian couple's surrogate child may sue the Norwegian state for damages within days, Dagsavisen has reported.
Naeem Qureshi's wife Mona entered a surrogacy programme to pay for his medical treatment, but suffered fatal complications during the birth.
One of the twins she was carrying died shortly after birth but the other is now in Norway with its parents.
Norwegian lawyer Shahzad Nazir, who is giving Qureshi him free legal aid, said he hoped the state would provide help without his client having to go to court.
