TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — A police officer in Taiwan’s Keelung City identified the body of a woman who went missing in 2016 with a necklace and Facebook photo of hers, helping return her body to her family, Liberty Times reported on Saturday (April 15).

Hsu Yao-bin (許耀彬), a section chief at the First Precinct, Keelung City Police Bureau who has a reputation for identifying unclaimed bodies, received a call from a woman in April. The woman asked him to help look for her 53-year-old sister surnamed Huang, who was reported missing on February 3, 2016, according to Liberty Times.

After listening to the woman, Hsu told her, “I will do my best to help you. Please don’t worry,” the news outlet said.

Hsu found that since Huang went missing, there had been no browsing nor records of her posting on social media. He also compared Huang with more than 100 files of unclaimed bodies, and found that a female’s body was found by coastal anglers on February 13, 2016, according to the news outlet.
