Chinanews, Beijing, March 7 – Survival pressure, wounded feelings, and ignorance of the law are the three majors reasons misleading Chinese female criminals onto the wrong path.

 

According to a report by the People's Procuratorate of Haidian District of Beijing, most female criminals only committed light crimes, and some were forced to be accomplices.

 

For example, many women criminals were caught red-handed while trying to sell fake goods or even fake receipts, and many are laid-off workers in their mid-40s or mid-50s. Actually, it is very hard for them to find a new job, while they still have to support their families. Heavy economic burden has driven them to commit crimes.

 

“I believe we should complete our bail and parole system, which might mean a lot to these poor women, ”said one procurator.

 

Besides economic crimes, many women are jailed for inflicting injury on their unfaithful husbands in revenge.
