Preface
Once upon a time, news of child trafficking was not uncommon. With the progress of public order and the improvement of people's education level, there are fewer and fewer such cases.
However, 21 years ago, there was a case that was even more shocking than ordinary trafficking cases: the abduction and trafficking of baby girls! Why did these babies who had just arrived in the world become the "business" of human traffickers? How tragic is the truth about this industrial chain?
Baby in a snakeskin bag
In 03, the Guangxi police received an unbelievable phone call.
The other party did not say his name and the reason for the report, and after connecting, his tone was serious and fast, as if he was afraid that he would be discovered, and quickly ended the call.
However, the other party provided some extremely critical information, such as the license plate number of the long-distance freight truck, and vague information about the "abduction case".
The call quickly attracted the attention of the police, and soon, they sent police to investigate at various toll booths, and after a long period of hard work, they finally found the trace of the long-distance passenger car.
This is a passenger bus from Guangxi to Anhui, and the police checked the passengers inside one by one, and sure enough, they found suspicious passengers.
First of all, a middle-aged woman with sneaky eyes, she was very frightened when she saw the police coming, and kept dodging, but when the other passengers were honestly being checked, she was flickering and unwilling to take out her documents.
What's even more suspicious is that she was holding a big blanket in her hand, and when she opened it, it was indeed a baby.
Faced with the questioning gaze of the police, she began to quibble. said that the child was his granddaughter, and he didn't get up because of his inconvenient legs.
But instead of listening to her, the police rescued the baby and took her away.
But on the surface, they didn't bring the child on the bus except for the child in the blanket, so what was the case of abduction? Was it the only child who was killed?
Later, the police checked the trunk of the bus, but found no trace of the child, and the trunk was basically empty except for a few snakeskin bags.
Suddenly, a policeman's heart was cold, and a bad premonition prompted him to open the snakeskin bag, and what caught his eye was a scene that he would never forget.
Several of the children fell asleep in the snakeskin pouches, making no sound, except squirming twice from time to time to show that they still had vital signs.
Soon, some police officers noticed that something was wrong. Although babies are drowsy, it is almost impossible to be sleepy to such an extent, and it is very likely that criminals injected them with something like a tranquilizer.
After investigation, a total of 28 babies were abducted, and the middle-aged woman's accomplice had as many as 18 people in the car alone.
They were soon apprehended by the police, but the priority was to rescue the drugged babies and wait until they were taken to the hospital for the police to discover the seriousness of the incident.
Give the baby sleeping pills
After bringing the more than 20 babies to the hospital, the doctor quickly gave the diagnosis, that is, the children were given sleeping pills, and the dose was not small, which is why all the children were quiet.
After the doctor's rescue, 27 babies were saved, but one of them left the world because they were fed too many sleeping pills.
This incident made the police very sad, and they also strengthened their belief that the matter would be investigated to the end. In order not to let one go, they continued their investigation and eventually found more than two dozen suspects.
I thought I could breathe a sigh of relief, but within a few days, a police call aroused the vigilance of the police. The informant, an ordinary truck driver, found several snakeskin bags on the side of the road during his daily drive, which contained several babies when opened.
Soon, the police said that this case was linked to the previous abduction case, and immediately sent police to the side of the road where the snakeskin bag was found, but the wave was unsettled, and after a while, a police call came again.
This time it was a taxi driver, he had just taken an ordinary order, a couple got into his car with a large bag and a small bag, put the snakeskin bag in the trunk of the car, and looked a little suspicious, but he didn't pay much attention to it.
However, not long after, the driver's car broke down, and when he broke down in the server to repair the car, the two couples disappeared without a trace, leaving only the "goods" in the trunk.
The driver was very annoyed and opened the snakeskin bag to find out, but he didn't expect that it was a live baby inside!
He was shocked and immediately called the police, because the children's state looked very weak, and if the police were too late, they would probably die.
These cases are strikingly similar, and the police combined the clues of each case, and after day and night investigations, the truth finally surfaced.
As the police thought, there was a huge criminal gang behind this abduction case, and the leader turned out to be a female farmer who was nearly 60 years old.
Her name is Xie Deming, not only did she do this kind of hurtful business, but she also gathered her family and friends and asked them all to help her abduct and sell children.
They sold their babies from Guangxi to Anhui for a profit, which is why many of them were arrested on long-distance buses to Anhui.
But with the deepening of the investigation, the police found that the people involved in the case were far more than these people, reaching 150 people, many of them were professions that we did not expect, it turned out that the most chilling thing was not the occurrence of the abduction case, but the truth hidden behind it.
Bloody truth
In fact, at the beginning of the investigation, the police noticed that something was wrong. That is, these abducted babies are basically female babies, very few male babies, and at the end of the case, there was only one male baby out of the more than 100 babies solved. Why are only baby girls murdered?
It turns out that many of these baby girls were abandoned by their parents at birth. The reason for the abandonment is precisely because they are female. There are many times when they are not recognized or valued by their parents, and choose to leave them to fend for themselves.
Some of these abandoned babies are sold by their parents, while others are sold by doctors and nurses in health clinics and hospitals. It's hard to imagine that a doctor who saves people would do such a thing, and it's chilling.
To buy these baby girls, you only need a very low price, most of them only cost a few tens of yuan. Dozens of dollars to buy a life is really chilling. But in Anhui, where the economy is relatively developed, selling them can make several times the profit.
In addition to being sold by their parents, there are also those who have stolen or abducted them. But most families don't care about the loss of girls, because having girls is not an honorable thing in rural areas where sons are preference.
It is precisely by being brainwashed by this feudal ideology that the trafficker syndicate does not feel much guilt. They believe that the birth of a baby girl is undoubtedly bad luck for a family, and that selling them is a good thing for both traffickers and buyers.
Their values are outrageous, and these hateful traffickers have been sentenced to death in accordance with the law, and the main culprits have been sentenced to death. And the babies, the police are also helping them to get back to their homes.
But the chilling thing is that most of the children are not blessed when they are born, and if they are allowed to go home, will they really be happy, will they be abandoned in another way? These things are things that no one dares to think about carefully.
epilogue
I hope that with the progress of the times and ideas, girls can avoid the fate of being disgusted and abandoned, and I also hope that the national laws can be more and more perfect to stop the occurrence of trafficking.
