Chinese police have helped two more children, who were rescued from human traffickers but not identified, back to their parents, as the latest progress in the campaign of bringing rescued kids home launched by the Ministry of Public Security.

Police officers in Lanzhou, capital of northwest China's Gansu Province, found the two children's parents with the help of clues offered by the public and DNA comparison, the ministry said.

So far, six children out of 60 have found their parents since the ministry posted their personal information and photos on its official website on Oct. 27, the ministry said on Thursday.

The campaign aroused wide concern and received a lot of helpful clues from the public, the ministry said.

The ministry also said it would make public the information of more children who were rescued but remained unidentified.

Meanwhile, police on Tuesday captured an abduction suspect on the most-wanted list in southeast China's Fujian Province, and so far 19 out of 20 suspects on the ministry's most-wanted list of serious abduction crimes had been arrested, the ministry said on Wednesday.

Earlier in April, the ministry launched a special crackdown on child abduction. As of Oct. 12, over 2,000 children had been rescued from more than 1,700 human trafficking cases.
