Chinese warehouse worker Liu Fei was fined 330,000 yuan, or 14 times her yearly wage, for having a second child and her failure to pay means the boy has no access to basic rights like schooling and healthcare, Sky news reported Thursday. Liu’s desperation prompted a fruitless attempt to sell her kidney and her eight-year-old boy’s plea to sell his instead. Their dilemma has now triggered a rare legal battle against the police for denying the boy a “hukou” – household registration – due to strict family planning laws. The case will be heard in a Beijing court on Friday.
