Why company wants to recover ‘extra maternity leave days’ from you

Dear Anash

I took maternity leave early in the year for a period of four months. However, upon reporting back in July this year, my boss said I was only entitled to two months maternity leave and therefore the company shall recover the "extra days" I took. I am surprised by the turn of events since the new labour laws provide for a three months maternity leave. And why should I forfeit my annual leave. Please advice.
