A 22-year-old Myanmar woman who was abducted to Jiangsu Province has been rescued by police. Yangtze Evening News said local police figured out her nationality by playing national songs of different countries.

The woman by the name of Wenma came to Yiling Town of Jiangdu City last August with a middle-aged woman who told locals that Wenma was her poor relative from Yunnan Province and wanted to marry a man who would pay her parents the bride price.

Wenma eventually got "married" with a 28-year-old man surnamed She after She's parents paid that woman about 30,000 yuan. Wenma could not speak Chinese but she was diligent in doing housework. Her "husband" and his parents were all satisfied with her.

She's mother talked happily about her "daughter-in-law" with local villagers. But one neighbor did not believe in her story about Wenma and called the police.

Huang Bin, deputy director of the Exit and Entry Department of Jiangsu Provincial Public Security Bureau, came to check and found Wenma was not a Chinese citizen, but Huang could not determine her nationality due to language barrier.

Judging her appearance, Huang guessed Wenma was from Southeast Asia, so he played the national songs of Southeast Asian nations one by one and watched her reaction. When the 12th song, from Myanmar, was played, Wenma suddenly brightened up. The answer was obvious.

With help from the Myanmar embassy in Beijing, Jiangdu police accompanied Wenma to her country early this month and reported her abduction to Myanmar police. Wenma's abductor, a Yunnan woman surnamed Lei is now on police's wanted list.
