Ningling county health commission in Central China’s Henan Province releases an official statement on November 1, 2024, saying that four individuals suspected of infant trafficking have been put under criminal coercive measures by the police.

Four individuals suspected of involvement in an infant trafficking case have been placed under criminal coercive measures by the police. A joint working group has been established to further investigate the case in Ningling county, Central China's Henan Province, the county health commission said on Friday.
