Chinese police on Friday transferred 10 abducted children of Vietnamese nationality to the Vietnamese authorities in Fangchenggang, a city in South China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region.
In February 2011, Fangchenggang police uncovered a case in which a group of Vietnamese were suspected of illegally crossing the border, and abducting and trafficking children of Vietnamese nationality from Guangxi to its neighboring province, Guangdong.
Chinese police made a thorough investigation of what appeared to be a transnational children-trafficking gang, which they say was led by two Vietnamese suspects.
In July 2011, Chinese police seized 43 suspects, 10 of them Vietnamese, and saved 10 abducted Vietnamese children, who were later transferred to social welfare institutes in Guangxi.
According to the Ministry of Public Security, Chinese authorities have always paid high attention to cracking down on transnational abductions and trafficking crimes, and positively promoted pragmatic cooperation with the Vietnamese authorities and other foreign police.
Since 2009, the Chinese police have rescued and repatriated 1,804 abducted women of Vietnamese nationality and 41 abducted Vietnamese children.
