One-child law: new cases of abortions, forced sterilizations and imprisonment

CHINA - U.S. One-child law: new cases of abortions, forced sterilizations and imprisonment - Asia News: A woman was subjected to a forced abortion in the eighth month of pregnancy because her child was conceived outside the quota established by the state; another was forced to abort at eight and a half months, she was pregnant with twins, while other mothers were forced to undergo sterilization, and even more to undergo the insertion of intrauterine contraceptive tools; for entire families, guilty of having more than one child, there are huge fines, the demolition of their homes, prison, torture.

This is the bleak picture of the fruits of one-child law, implemented with violence in China in since the late '70s. The Chinese leadership exalts it as the path – by terminating the lives of over 400 million unborn – that has allowed the current economic development of the country.
