Missing man comes back with an abduction story

Abduction, it is believed, is a way for criminals to blackmail people for a ransom. A man in Sanmao village of Wenzhou, East China's Zhejiang province, however, was abducted and forced to work as a virtual slave.

Cai Qingyu, 49, who has been missing for 31 years, went back home on Feb 14, saying that he was cheated and abducted by a group of people and taken to an isolated island to raise orchids, 66wz.com, citing Cai, reported on Saturday.

Cai recalled that he was 18 years old when he was taken with another 15 male laborers on a ship by a group, who promised to give them 1,000 yuan ($160) in wages in 1984. They arrived at an island, possibly around Thailand, after a three-day trip and were enclosed in an orchid garden to work.

Cai and fellow workers reportedly never stepped out the orchid garden until the alleged garden owner died three years ago and they were sent back to China.

Next, a couple moves into a new government-supplied house after living three decades in an austere cave.
