Three thieves were caught during event when it was held in a square on Dushi Road.

Zhao Miaojuan, retired teacher and volunteer

“The judge told me that a man wanting to ditch a sick wife was not worthy of my love and I deserved better,” she said. “He persuaded my husband to pay me an allowance, for which I will be eternally grateful.”
Ma Zhiwei, director of the social security team of Qibao Town
