Woman from Italy Allegedly Fakes Pregnancy 17 Times to Get Leave and Allowance Money

Dream - An Italian woman was interrogated by the police for allegedly faking about 17 pregnancies. The suspicion arose because the woman named Barbara Loele had an unusual frequency of pregnancies in the last 24 years. Quoting from Oddity Central, the 50-year-old woman is suspected of using the pregnancies to take maternity leave for years and a small amount of state-paid benefits.

According to the submitted document, Barbara has admitted to being pregnant 17 times, but 12 of them did not survive, meaning she had a miscarriage. Meanwhile, the other five pregnancies successfully brought forth babies named Benedetta, Angelica, Abramo, Letizia, and Ismaele.

However, there is no record that her five children have ever been registered. No residents have ever seen them either. Barbara is suspected to have given birth to her youngest child in December last year. However, Barbara's actions seem to be coming to an end soon. Authorities have been monitoring her and have evidence that Barbara has never been pregnant. Authorities also accuse her of falsifying 17 announced pregnancies to receive benefits of over 110,000 euros or around Rp1.8 billion and to take time off work.

The following is the translation of the given 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any HTML tags: "The Barbara Ioele case recently became national headline news in Italy. Her story, which is incredibly hard to believe, made most filmmakers consider it exaggerated."

The prosecutor claims that the complex fraud that lasted for two decades involved the theft of birth certificates from a clinic in Rome and other fake documents, as well as forged doctor's signatures, pillows to mimic baby bumps, and walking exercises to appear pregnant. To prove her pregnancy, Barbara registered a stolen medical certificate with a fake signature in order to receive approximately US$120,000 in benefits. She also took maternity leave.

Amazingly, no one suspected anything because Barbara's actions had been carried out since the year 2000. However, her luck ran out last year when the police began monitoring her latest pregnancy.

"Spouse's Confession"

"Barbara is being closely followed by authorities who are trying to gather evidence regarding the alleged false pregnancy. This police action also opens the door to investigations into previous pregnancies. 'I know for sure that my partner is not pregnant,' said Davide Pizzinato, Barbara's partner."

The following is the translation of the given 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any html tags: "The 55-year-old man admitted that he had known about her deception since 2012, when their relationship began. He was accused of being involved but decided to testify against Barbara in exchange for a lighter punishment."

While Barbara continues to deny her actions despite the overwhelming evidence. Some of the evidence includes the absence of her five children, fake documents, the testimony of her partner, and police investigation. Throughout the examination process, Barbara tried to avoid interrogation by presenting two original medical certificates as evidence of her poor health condition. However, she is facing imprisonment for financial fraud and identity theft, among other charges.
