Cheng Jiafu, son of Mr Chen, was abducted from his family home in the Chinese region of Qingxin about nine months ago. A huge search operation was launched following the boy's kidnapping but there were no positive results.
Nine months later, Mr Chen was walking through the Qingxin Town Plaza where he bumped into his son with the three suspected human traffickers.

Without a second thought, Chen snatched his son from the traffickers before notifying the police. The police later arrested the three men according to Qingxin News.
The men have been identified only by their surnames, Chen, Li and Ou. They have been awarded two, three and six years sentence in prison respectively. The judge ruled that the men kidnapped the boy with the intention of selling him to another family.
