Twins Ruling

A British court ruled today that a pair of conjoined twins must be separated. Separating them will kill one of the twins. They only have one heart. The parents of the twins are devout Roman Catholics and oppose separating them, they may appeal to the House of Lords or the European Court of Human Rights. We hear a report from the BBC's John Duce.
