Pressure to Repeal China’s One-Child Law Is Growing

Pressure to Repeal China’s One-Child Law Is Growing - NYTimes.com: Pan Chunyan was grabbed from her grocery store when she was almost eight months pregnant with her third child. Men working for a local official locked her up with two other women, and four days later brought her to a hospital and forced her to put her thumbprint on a document saying she had agreed to an abortion. A nurse injected her with a drug.

“After I got the shot, all the thugs disappeared,” Ms. Pan, 31, said in a telephone interview from her home in the southeastern province of Fujian. “My family was with me again. I cried and hoped the baby would survive.” But after hours of labor, the baby was born dead on April 8, “black and blue all over."
