Last weekend, a missing third-year university student from north-east China's Heilongjiang province escaped seven months as a sex slave and was reunited with family.
The 22-year-old showed up at a police station in Linyi, Shandong on Saturday with blackened, swollen eyes, pleading for help to get back home.
Identifying the missing girl, police then promptly apprehended her captor arranged for her family to come pick her up.
Her capture, surnamed Gu, earned her trust over the course of an online friendship and then took his victim to Dalian, Liaoning in February this year. To prevent family members from finding the missing girl, Gu brought her to Linyi on 11 September. On the night of 13 September, she escaped from the bathroom and ran away, eventually finding people who helped bring her to the police station.
As well as regular beating, Gu controlled his victim by threatening to kill her family members and spread compromising pictures of her online. He remains in police custody awaiting trial.
