ISLAMABAD, May 8 (Xinhua) -- China is willing to closely coordinate with Pakistan's law enforcement department to counter illegal cross-national matchmaking, the Chinese Embassy in Islamabad said on Wednesday.

The embassy issued the statement after a delegation from the Crime Investigation Department of the Chinese Public Security Ministry visited Pakistan and interacted with Pakistan's Interior Ministry, Foreign Ministry and Islamabad police department.

The delegation told the Pakistani departments that China has found clues of some illegal cross-national matchmaking centers, but no evidence was found over alleged human trafficking, sales of human organs and prostitution.

Last month, the embassy said in a statement that "China is cooperating with Pakistani law enforcement agencies to crack down on illegal matchmaking centers" and "Chinese laws and regulations strictly prohibit cross-national matchmaking centers. No individual is allowed to engage in any form of such activity by deception or for profit."
