LM & Others v Government of Namibia
Government of Namibia
LM & Others v Government of Namibia is a legal case regarding coerced sterilisation of three women. In 2012, the Namibian High Court held that the women had been coercively sterilised. On appeal, the Supreme Court of Namibia upheld the High Court decision on 3 November 2014.
==Background==
The three women applicants had been sterilised at a public hospital when giving birth via Caesarean section. The women argued that any purported consent to the sterilisation had been coerced as they had either not been told the contents of the consent forms they were signing, did not understand the medical staff, or had been told by doctors that their Caesarean surgeries would only be performed if they agreed to a sterilisation.
All the women are HIV-positive and believe that they were targeted for sterilisation on the basis of their HIV status.
