Chinese anti-one child policy activist arrested, sent to labor camps

Chinese anti-one child policy activist arrested, sent to labor camps | LifeSiteNews.com: In March last year, Mao Hengfeng was sentenced to a year and a half of “re-education through labor” for “disturbing public order.” Hengfeng had been released on parole due to health concerns from her ill-treatment and torture during imprisonment on February 22, but was arrested and sent back to labor camps on February 24. Her whereabouts remains unknown.

A human rights activist in China, Hengfeng has fought China’s brutal one child policy since 1988 when she was fired from her job for violating the law with her third pregnancy. Hengfeng appealed the court’s rule and was reinstated in her job. Later, however, she was denied appeal, dismissed from her job, and forced to abort her fourth child. Since then Hengfeng has been repeatedly imprisoned and tortured for her activism.
