The principal offenders, surnamed Li and Sun—their full names have not been released—in a string of child abduction and trafficking cases spreading across three years and three provinces received capital sentences. Nine other accomplices got sentences ranging from 4 years imprisonment to death with reprieve. Between 2005 and 2008, Li and Sun allegedly abducted by force seven male infants and young boys and sold them to son-less families. Both men also reportedly perpetrated several larcenies and robberies over the same period. The case, including the successful return of six of the seven boys to their birth parents, has been highlighted, along with other cases, in coordination with the Public Security Bureau's current campaign against the abduction and trafficking of children and women.
