Transnational child trafficker executed
Print Edition
A KEY member of a transnational child trafficking gang, Huang Qingheng, was executed in southern China’s Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region yesterday.
Huang’s execution was sanctioned by China’s Supreme Court.
Huang, whose nationality was not clear, claimed to be born in 1982 and lived in Vietnam. Huang and her gang were found guilty of trafficking more than 20 infants and children since 2010, according to court verdicts.
The children were smuggled from Vietnam to be sold in China, mainly in Guangdong Province. In some cases, pregnant Vietnamese women were sent to China to sell their children after delivery.
Eleven of the children were rescued by Chinese police, 10 of whom were Vietnamese and sent back to Vietnam. The rescued children were aged from 10 days to 7 months.
There were 23 members in Huang’s gang, which comprised both Chinese and Vietnamese nationals.
Other members were given jail terms ranging from 22 months to life imprisonment.
Huang was sentenced to death by the Intermediate People’s Court of Fangchenggang City in Guangxi after being found guilty of child trafficking in a trial held in May 2014.
She was also stripped of all her property. Huang appealed her case to a higher court.
The higher people’s court in the region dismissed her appeal in January 2015 and upheld the ruling made by the lower court before submitting Huang’s death sentence to the Supreme Court for final approval.
