BANGKOK — A Chinese man who was searching for his 21-year-old daughter after she mysteriously disappeared in Thailand, informed the media on January 13 that his daughter has been rescued and has returned to China. He thanked Thai officials for helping track her down and ensuring her safe rescue.
“I am deeply grateful to the police officers and military personnel who helped trace [my daughter] since the news broke, as well as to the Thai government and all Thai people who showed concern and helped search for my daughter. I am truly touched,” said Mr. W. Weidong, the Chinese father.
Earlier, Mr. Weidong, fearing that his daughter might have fallen victim to traffickers like Wang Xing, submitted a formal request for help to national police chief Pol. Gen. Kittirat Phanpet at the Royal Thai Police headquarters on January 8.

Thai police investigation revealed that Ms. Jiaqi, a recent college graduate making her first trip abroad, had come with a friend she had recently met on social media – someone her family had never met. She was lured in a similar manner to Chinese actress Wang Xing, whom police had previously rescued from Myanmar.
The timeline of her disappearance raised serious concerns. After landing in Thailand around 4:00 a.m. on January 6, she contacted her mother via WeChat, sharing her location and plans to stay in the Don Mueang area.

When her mother warned about travel to Burma (Myanmar), Ms. Jiaqi responded, “I’m not stupid,” and assured her, “I wouldn’t dare to go to Burma.” She continued communicating throughout the morning, but contact abruptly ceased at 4:00 p.m. After 24 hours of silence, her father flew to Thailand.
Investigation of CCTV footage revealed that a white Toyota Alphard picked up Ms. Jiaqi at Suvarnabhumi Airport and transported her to a hotel – not in Don Mueang as she had told her mother, but in the Lat Krabang area. Hotel records show she checked in at 5:00 a.m. and checked out just four hours later at 9:00 a.m.
Police reviewed CCTV footage from the Lat Krabang hotel to track her movements after checkout. Finally, they found her in the same location as Wang Xing and rescued her from there.
