Girl can rest after 10-year hunt

A 25-year-old woman from Wanzhou in Chongqing Municipality has ended a 10-year search for the man who sold her mother and killed her father, delivering him to police custody in September.

In 1992, Wang Wenlong, a farmer in Wanzhou, sold Chen Xia’s mother to a farmer in Sheqi County, Henan Province.

Chen and her father tracked down Wang two years later. During the ensuing argument, Wang stabbed Chen’s father with a knife. He died a month later.

After Chen graduated from junior high school in 1996, she took on odd jobs so that she could travel to many parts of the country to look for Wang.

She finally found him in Wuhan, Hubei Province, in September and alerted police.
