The family planning authority in Shaanxi province said on Thursday it will show no tolerance to officials who committed a "serious violation" by performing an abortion on a woman seven months pregnant.
An investigation team was sent to Zhenping county this week after images widely circulated online of Feng Jianmei, 23, lying in a hospital bed next to her dead baby girl.
Her 30-year-old husband, Deng Jiyuan, posted the pictures on Tuesday along with allegations that his wife was given an abortion on June 2 against her wishes and without her family being notified beforehand.
