on the morning of september 23, zhong dingyou, the father of zhong bin, one of the abducted children in the "auntie mei case", told elephant news that the dna information comparison had been completed and he had already met with zhong bin.

the "auntie mei case" involved a total of nine abducted children. the father of the last abducted child, ouyang hao, told elephant news that after receiving a notification from the police, he had rushed to guangdong on september 22 to collect a new blood sample, "i hope my luck will be better this time."

zhong bin has met his family

on the afternoon of december 31, 2004, zhong bin, who was only one and a half years old, was abducted by human trafficker zhang weiping. he was one of the children abducted in the "auntie mei case."

between 2003 and 2007, children from nine families in hunan, jiangxi, sichuan, guizhou and other places were abducted one after another. the youngest abducted child was 1 year old and the oldest was 3 years old, all boys. in march 2016, five suspects of the abduction case were arrested. according to police investigation, these nine cases of child trafficking were all completed through a middleman called "auntie mei", so this case of child trafficking is also known as the "auntie mei case".

in september 2024, the police identified a child who was "highly suspected" of being zhong bin, and conducted a dna comparison between zhong dingyou and the child. the day before the mid-autumn festival, zhong dingyou received good news from the guangdong and jiangxi police: the dna comparison was successful.

at present, the online name "looking for son zhong bin" that zhong dingyou has used for many years has been changed to "successfully finding son zhong bin".

after the reunion, zhong dingyou did not want his child's life to be disturbed too much. he told the reporter of elephant news: "i have met my son recently and he is doing well. thank you very much for your concern and attention to our family's 20-year search for our son."

the last parent of the abducted child has had his blood drawn again

at present, eight abducted children in the "auntie mei case" have been found, and exciting news has also come about the last abducted child, ouyang hao.

on the morning of september 23, a reporter from elephant news learned from ouyang hao's father, ouyang guoqi, that after receiving a notice from the guangdong police to re-collect dna blood samples, he went to guangdong on september 22 to re-collect blood samples.

in may 2005, while ouyang guoqi was working in guangzhou, his 2-year-old child ouyang hao was abducted in xiancun town, zengcheng. he was later identified as the child involved in the "auntie mei case". for nearly 20 years, ouyang guoqi has been searching for his son, and the key area has always been within guangdong.

"i hope my luck will be better this time." ouyang guoqi said that he is 50 years old this year. since his son was abducted, in addition to farming in his hometown in hunan, his main focus has been on finding his son. he has been living in the shadow of the eagerness to find his son and the pain of missing him.

like many people looking for their relatives, ouyang guoqi also reiterated the views on strict laws and severe punishments, such as "death penalty for traffickers" and "same crime for buying and selling".

he said that compared with the pain endured by the families of those who have lost their loved ones, the current legal punishment for human traffickers is still "too lenient."
