Topeka ? The abortion debate erupted today as Kansas Atty. Gen. Phill Kline presented what he said was evidence of a filthy and dangerous abortion clinic in Kansas City, Kan.

“This is evidence of a system that is broken,” Kline said and he urged lawmakers to adopt legislation to regulate abortion clinics.

Kline’s top investigator Thomas Williams led lawmakers through photographs, sworn testimony and police statements of and about a clinic run by Dr. Krishna Rajanna.

“This is a place where no woman, no person, should have to undergo a medical procedure,” Kline said.

The photos showed that aborted fetuses were kept in a refrigerator with food and medicine, surgical instruments were stored in a bathroom, and numerous other alleged health and safety hazards.

Rajanna, in a telephone interview, said his clinic was clean and safe and that Kline, who opposes a woman’s right to have an abortion, was on a political mission to restrict abortions.

“We have nothing to hide,” Rajanna said.

Abortion rights supporters said there was no need to pass additional regulations on abortion clinics because the Kansas Board of Healing Arts, which regulates physicians, already has the authority to take action against doctors who violate medical rules.

“The Board of Healing Arts needs to investigate this situation and take care of the problem,” Jennifer McAdam, with Planned Parenthood of Kansas and Mid-Missouri, said.
