This kind of crime violates the law and should be dealt with in accordance with the criminal law and relevant regulations. (2) It is forbidden to discriminate against or abuse women who give birth to baby girls and infertile women.

In some places, some criminals, witches and gods take advantage of the superstitious psychology of some women, and use divination, fortune telling and guidance to get lost. Women who pretend to be superstitious need the ways and means they point out to avoid trouble and cheat money; And in the name of catching ghosts and driving them out, they maim women who are physically and mentally ill or commit adultery with women; Or torture or maim women by violent means until they are insane or even die, they can be punished in accordance with the relevant provisions of China's criminal law.
