Alleged child trafficker stripped and assaulted in Hunan streets
The woman and two others were reportedly spotted at around 11:00 a.m. trying to kidnap a three-month-old baby and a two-year-old toddler at a shop in Baifu Road, Shaodong county.
The woman was the only one captured by onlookers. Before she was sent to the police station, however, the parents of the children decided to take matters into their own hands and began violently abusing her.

Aunt of crying toddler beaten by passersby after being mistaken for child trafficker
…
Recently in Sichuan province, however, it seems that passersby were a bit too quick to act when they saw a child crying on the street with his aunt.
The woman took the little boy to the road last Sunday to play about. He began crying and fussing as he was with her, generating suspicion from crowds of pedestrians who gathered around. Assuming that the woman was a child trafficker, they surrounded her and began roughing her up.
The two were sent to a local police station, where officers confirmed that she was, in fact, his aunt.

Child-snatchers abducting as many as 200,000 boys and girls and openly selling them online for up to £10,000 in kidnapping epidemic which is destroying families across China
…
As many as 200,000 boys and girls are kidnapped in China every year and sold openly online, it’s been reported.
Child trafficking has been a long-standing problem in China, but despite the efforts of the authorities, the sinister practice is thriving, leading to thousands of families being torn apart.
The US State Department believes that 20,000 children are snatched every year – that’s 400 a week.
However, Chinese state media says the figure could be as high as 200,000, according to the BBC.
Baby boys, who are preferred in China because they’ll ensure the family name remains intact, can sell for as much as £10,500.
