Chinese police rescue 92 abducted children
Chinese police have rescued 92 abducted children and held 301 suspected members of a huge trafficking network, the authorities say.
They say two women were also freed in an operation involving police forces in 11 provinces of the country.
The traffickers are believed to have targeted children in the south-western Yunnan and Sichuan provinces and then sold them in other regions.
...
Critics blame the country's one-child policy and lax adoption laws, which they say have created a thriving underground market for buying children.
