网友疑似找到了徐州丰县被铁链拴脖子连生八孩的女性？这照片对比太像了。
下半张脸确实很像。眼睛不像，但失踪女孩近视说明原照片戴了隐形，现在肯定没有条件戴，近视的人不戴隐形眼神会散，两眼无光显得没精神，所以两张图是一个人也不是完全不可能。

To xxx：
We are calling on the xxx for an urgent investigation into the human trafficking, sex enslaving, and a heinous human rights violation case in Xuzhou, China. A woman, who is believed to be Ying Li, was a victim of human trafficking since 12, and has been a sex slave of a man who not only raped her but also had 8 children with her. She is seen in the picture locked up with an industrial chain, covered with a thin layer in winter in a scruffy hut. The horrid fact is, Ying is not the only trafficked sex slave in the village. Evidence shows that there are at least several other women in the same if not worse situation.
Around Jan 29, an internet post drew the attention of the public. A man, Dong, Zhimin, is showing off his 8 kids and government subsidy he received on Tik-Tok. People noticed that in the background, there''s a woman shackled in a squalid place, a hut with no isolation in winter. Dong claimed his wife, the woman in the picture, is mentally sick. The incident soon raised internet outrage. Is it legal to chain up any individual in captivity? Was she mentally unwell before they were married, in which case the woman can be considered as nonconsensual? And most importantly, how did she end up there?
Two days later, the local government issued a statement saying that Yang, X Xia (the woman) was a local villager with mental disease, who was married to Dong in 1998. "There was no abduction and she is locked up to keep people safe." said the statement.
Soon, a grassroot volunteer organization discovered that a girl who was abducted on the way to school and claimed missing has undeniably identical features to Xia. The girl named Li, Ying was taken in 1996 at the age of 12, and is believed to be a human trafficking victim. Her family is still looking for her. With the look, the year missing, and all other details match, it is widely believed that Xia is Ying.
People who are related to the area or who have obtained information about the village stepped out with more information. The girl was "purchased" by Dong''s family from the traffickers, and used by the father and 2 sons sexually, one of which is Dong Zhimin. Some local officials participated in the raping as well. Xia, obstinate and valorous, fought back with teeth and kicks. In order to make her more "obedient", Dong knocked off her teeth and nipped off the tip of her tongue. One person also said that Xia was drugged to lose her voice.
The local government then issued another statement, saying they have compared with the DNA pool and Xia is not a registered missing person.
By then, Ying''s mother has requested a DNA comparison with Xia, which is never granted. Xia is kept in a place no outsiders can approach to get a sample.
More truth swarmed in, stupefying the already gasping public. Villages around Xuzhou have a history of being one of the destinations of human trafficking. In the 80s, during the year 1986 to 1989, there were over 48,000 human trafficking victims bought by the villagers as sex slaves. A rough calculation shows, today there are around 20,000 sex slaves in those villages. Human trafficking in Xuzhou has an industrial complex behind it. Unmarried guys can pay around 3,000 to 6,000 Yuan (around $500 to $1,000) to get a girl. The local government then would create a new ID for the girl, and too marriage licenses. The new household then can claim government subsidy. Of course, sex slaves do fight back. They will get beaten up, drugged, or inhumanely tortured as a result. There''s another woman "living" next to Xia''s, is crawling on the ground in a more grubby hut. Her knees were knocked to pieces from an attempted run-away. Another one is hung to the beam, whacked every other day. Some of them went insane in the living hell. About half of the rescued sex slaves are diagnosed of having mental illness.
Another question also emerged among all. There''s a ten-year gap between Xia''s 1st son and 2nd son. Xia has 7 boys and 1 girl, youngest 1 year old. The chance of getting such biological probability is thin. People suspect Xia has/had other kids. They could be girls that were "dealt with", following the prevailing gender discrimination across rural areas in China, the same discrimination causing the gender disproportion in China leaving men out number women by 30 million in rural areas, as girls are aborted, drowned after birth, or abandoned during infancy. The surplus group serves as terminal consumers of the human trafficking business. But no one could get a chance to talk to Xia. The village is sealed.
It is palpable by now that the Xuzhou local government has served as a shield in the human trafficking business. On the provincial level, neither Ying''s birth place nor Xuzhou''s governing province has uttered a sound despite the fuming lambasting from the public.
On Feb 7, the central government semi-officially stated that Xia has been identified. She is a woman of 52, from Yunnan Province, who was taken to treat her mental disease 20 years ago and got missing. She has no living relatives.
The public is giving backlash. Apparently, the numbers don''t add up. There''s no photographic or witness evidence either.
Till then, Ying''s mother''s DNA request is still not granted.
To date, Xia is segregated and confined to a mental institution guarded by armed police force for "national security reasons", no volunteer or social worker allowed to visit. The truth is prevented to be found out by the state apparatus.
According to all the information gleaned so far, Xia is not simply a psychotic woman who is mistreated. The whole occurrence is a consortium of crimes on multiple levels with unfathomable magnitudes. Xia was abducted, human trafficked, raped, sexually abused and assaulted, used as a reproductive machine, manhandled, and tortured. She was a prey of the human traffickers, her purchaser family of 3 males, local authorities who participated in raping and giving green light to the business chain, higher up government who makes up a story to deny her identity, and the state government that censors public opinions.
We want to ask a few questions:
- Why isn''t a DNA comparison approved?
- Why isn''t Xia permitted to talk to anyone outsider?
- Why isn''t the local government answering on what base did they issued the press releases that are contradicting each other?
- How many more women like Xia are there in the same village? The same city? The same province?
- What is being done to help them?
In so, we urgently request that you send out an independent investigation panel to evaluate the situation. We feel for Xia. Any human being''s heart would pain at such hideous crime. She is our daughter, sister, cousin... She was us. Remember, she, a sweet teenage girl much loved and cared for, was on her way to school one day, suddenly blacked out, and woke up in a living hell, with no one there to help. The state apparatus is used to protect perpetrators. The system is failing her.
We want the truth. We need the truth. We demand that the Xuzhou government give Li, Ying''s freedom and life back.

感谢！辛苦了！
想提一点点建议：可不可以把疑似绑架写进去？
human trafficking这个话题经常是跟社会底层联系在一起的，关注度可能会低于中产、受教育家庭、未成年被绑架和强奸。美国非常明显是这样，中国可能也是类似情况
修改了，感谢指出
