The woman, who is known by the pseudonym Chen Hong, was sentenced to five years’ imprisonment for fraud in December 2020 in central China’s Shanxi province, the Shanxi Evening News reported.
However, she was never properly incarcerated.
Instead, Chen kept being pregnant, having three children with one man in four years.

In China, convicts who suffer serious illnesses, are pregnant and nursing their newborn babies, or are unable to live by themselves are allowed to temporarily serve a sentence outside prison.
