7-Month Pregnant Woman Forced Into Labor to Abort Unborn Baby

Recently, a forum post said that the Government of Zengjia Town, Zhenping County, Ankang City, Shaanxi Province illegally took a 7-month-pregnant woman into custody, and forcibly induced labor in order to abort her unborn child. The pregnant woman, Feng Jianmei from Ankang City, was unable to pay the fine of 40,000 RMB for breaking the One-Child Policy, and was illegally taken into custody by the local town government, and forced to abort her baby. At 3:00 am June 4th, 36 hours after Feng Jianmei was compelled to accept a labor inducing injection, the dead fetus was taken out of her abdomen. The 7-month fetus was almost fully developed. A week later, photos of Feng Jianmei and her dead fetus were uploaded onto the internet, causing a controversy. Without notifying the family, induced labor was forced upon the unborn child. With regards to this, the Population and Family Planning Bureau of Zhenping County responded on its official website saying that the woman’s pregnancy does not conform to the [One-Child] Policy; however, after repeated persuasion by the county government cadres, the pregnant woman finally agreed to terminate the pregnancy and received the pregnancy termination procedure at 3:40 pm, June 2nd.

Feng Jianmei told the reporter that because she could not afford the fine of 40,000 RMB for having a second child, at 9:00 am on June 2nd, she was escorted to a hospital by about 20 to 30 county government employees and at 3:00 pm that day was injected with “poisonous drugs” to induce labor.

She was violently treated on the way to the hospital because she continued to resist and when she was at the hospital, no family members were present to be with her. According to Feng Jianmei, on May 29th, Deng Jiyuan [Feng Jianmei’s husband] had left home and was on his way to Inner Mongolia. On May 30th, the county government began sending people over, in four-man four-hour shifts, to guard her. On June 1st, using the excuse of “going grocery shopping”, she escaped to Deng Jiyuan’s aunt’s place to go into hiding, but was ultimately found later that same evening. The county government employees then used bricks to block the door to prevent her from escaping. The next morning, they escorted her to the hospital.

A 7-and-half-month-old fetus can totally survive. My daughter was born when she was six months and a half. She is now 4 years old, healthy, smart, just a little bit shorter than children of her age. But doctors say she will catch up her height with other children of her age when she is older than 10.

If she had money, this life would’ve been saved!

It is stated in our country’s constitution that a fetus of six months is considered a “person”. This is case of murder.

Ma Yinchu, the former president of Peking University who promoted the One-Child Policy, has 8 children himself.

We must crack down on those criminals who break the One-Child Policy!

My unborn little brother was not only forcibly aborted, our family was still fined. Sigh…

Because she couldn’t pay the 40,000 yuan fine for having a second child… May I ask, if she had the money, would she have been able to have the child? A 7-month-old life is not worth 40,000 RMB!

Anyone who is human would not be capable of doing this. For money, you guys have sold your consciences.

One of my friends became a county family planning cadre after graduation and firmly quit after a year, saying he could no longer rob the ordinary common people of their money! Let alone directly forcibly inducing abortions! If any faction leader has any chivalry, please send some people to take out these inhuman bastards!
