Amnesty International has broadcast a distress signal with a dramatic message as part of a campaign to raise awareness about the plight of 34-year-old Teodora del Carmen Vasquez, who is currently serving a prison sentence of 30 years for suffering a stillbirth in El Salvador, where abortion is a crime under any circumstance.
Norway recently became the first country in the world to shut down their FM radio band, and Amnesty International discovered a loophole to broadcast the first distress signal appearing on the Norwegian FM-band since World War II.
