"Praying at home may be illegal under Scotland's new 'safe access zones' abortion law"
"The SNP government has warned that praying at home may be illegal under new Scottish abortion laws.
A new law came into force across Scotland last month, creating 200-metre 'safe access zones' around all abortion clinics.
People living within these areas have been cautioned that they may violate the Abortion Services Act (Scotland) 2024 if they engage in any behaviour that could 'harass, alarm, or distress' clinic staff or patients.
Pro-life groups are concerned that praying within these zones could be deemed an offence, following the arrest of several activists for harassment and public order violations in England and Northern Ireland.
The Scottish Government has published guidance to accompany the law change.
It states that examples of activities that could be prohibited if conducted with 'intent or recklessness' includes 'religious preaching' and 'silent vigils'.
A letter posted to residents in an Edinburgh 'safe access zone' warned they could face criminal prosecution for actions carried out at home, The Telegraph reports."
