A pro-life campaigner who told authorities he was “praying silently for his son” is challenging his fine for breaching an exclusion zone outside a Birmingham abortion clinic.

Adam Smith-Connor is challenging a £100 council fine after he was found to be praying near an abortion facility in a buffer zone in Bournemouth, southwest UK, last November.
