On June 4, the ministry issued a class-A warrant for Wu. On December 15, more than 100 police officers started searching for Wu and seized her seven days later in a cave in Jiandou Township, Anxi County.
So far, 19 out of 20 suspects on the ministry's most-wanted list of serious abduction crimes have been arrested.
In another development, the ministry on Wednesday launched a 100-day nationwide winter campaign to ensure order and stability for the incoming Lunar New Year holidays.
Serious criminal crimes should always be severely cracked down upon, said Vice Minister Zhang Xinfeng.
