A Vietnamese wife was coaxed by a friend and trafficked to China as a bride in 2018. She was abused there and was not successfully rescued by the police until 2023. Due to policy issues, the gender ratio in China is imbalanced, and many people cannot find wives. This has attracted human trafficking groups to illegally abduct women from surrounding countries and sell them to China, forming a huge criminal industry chain.

According to a report by Vietnam Legal News (Bao Phap Luat Viet Nam), the famous wife and her husband had a daughter following marriage. They moved from their hometown of Cao Bang to Dak Lak and met Huang Nv. . After the Lunar New Year in 2018, the woman told her family that she wanted to go back to her hometown to visit relatives with Huang Nv. Before leaving, she took her daughter with her. Unexpectedly, she never returned, and the two of them have not heard from each other since.

In August 2023, the murdered woman contacted her sister through WeChat and said that Huang Nu was not going to visit relatives at all, but was going to sell her to China to be someone else’s wife. She had suffered a lot of abuse and forced labor in the past few years. It was miserable. After receiving the report, the police set up a task force with the Ministry of Public Security of Vietnam, the police of Duc Lak Province and the Northern Border Guard Force, and finally successfully rescued the woman in mid-September, and Huang was also arrested.

Huang Nv said that she met a Chinese woman through WeChat at that time. The other party told her that a Chinese man was looking for a Vietnamese bride and there would be a reward following the transaction was completed. Therefore, Huang Nv targeted the victim and offered her 4,000 yuan (approximately NT$1.8). Thousands of dollars) to sell the murdered woman and her daughter, which is quite abhorrent.

There have been an increasing number of human trafficking incidents in China recently. According to Phil Robertson, deputy Asia director of Human Rights Watch in Thailand, “There is still an imbalance in the gender ratio in China, and these women and girls can still be profited from trafficking.” Huge profits.” He said that many human traffickers also use job opportunities and emotional traps to deceive women and let them go to China.
