Chinese man reunites with abducted son after 24 years
Beijing: A man from China has been reunited with his lost son after a search of 24-year.
According to details, the son of a man named Guo Gangtang was abducted by human traffickers in front of their home in the province of Shandong in 1997.
The man had travelled more than 500,000km (310,000 mi) on a motorbike across the country in search of his son. In the process, he got severely injured in traffic accidents and even met robbers and dacoits. He told Chinese media that his ten motorbikes were also damaged.
Mr. Guo revealed that he carried banners with his son's picture on them and spent his life savings on the mission, sleeping under bridges and begging people for cash when he ran out of money.
He also became a well-known member of missing-persons organizations in China, and assisted around seven other families in reuniting with their kidnapped children.
According to China's Ministry of Public Security, the police were able to trace the identity of Mr. Guo’s son using DNA testing. Two suspects were later tracked down and arrested.
The story of Mr. Guo has also inspired a movie in 2015, which starred Hong Kong superstar Andy Lau.
