A maternity clinic in Tokyo has stored aborted fetuses in its freezer, according to Tokyo Metropolitan Government officials who have inspected the clinic.
The officials said the clinic's handling of aborted fetuses violates the Medical Service Law and they plan to issue an order to correct the situation.
The metropolitan government inspected the clinic Aug. 5 after some employees informed the government that aborted fetuses may have been disposed of in the garbage, a charge the clinic's director categorically denies.
