\u201cPregnancy is natural and innocent. That the Chinese Communist Party would treat pregnant women as criminals and tell them they \u2018deliberately broke the law\u2019 by becoming pregnant is madness.\u201d<\/p>\n

So writes Women’s Rights Without Frontiers<\/a> president\u00a0Reggie Littlejohn today\u00a0in an email press release about\u00a0yet another woman who has been forced to abort her baby in China, a country long known for it’s One-Child Policy (recently revised as a Two-Child Policy), which has led to countless\u00a0forced and coerced abortions.<\/p>\n

The woman, Anxiang (not her real name) and her husband,\u00a0a remarried couple living in Guangdong, were reportedly forced to choose between carrying their baby to term or keeping their government jobs. Littlejohn states\u00a0that the couple “thought that they were allowed to have another child, but were caught in an omission regarding remarried women in Guangdong Province.\u00a0 At the end of July, they were told to abort, or face fines and dismissal.”<\/p>\n

Littlejohn reports that Anxiang’s pregnancy was\u00a0six months along, which meant that her baby had to be aborted by the induction method. Former abortionist, Dr. Anthony Levatino, describes the process of an induction abortion in the video below:<\/p>\n
