Delhi Women’s Commission rescues 12 Nepalese Women while trafficking

Delhi : 12 Nepalese women were rescued by The Delhi Commission for Women (DCW) on Monday from different locations in Northwest Delhi.

The commission said that the women were allegedly being trafficked to Dubai.

The women said they were brought to Delhi by an agent who promised them well-paying jobs in Gulf countries, it said. Two teams were rushed to Najafgarh after the commission received a complaint that Nepalese girls were being held captive at two locations, the statement said.

An FIR has been registered in the case. The women were taken to a shelter home.

“The girls told the commission that the agent had taken away their passports and warned them of arrest if they left the room. Some of them were living in the room for around two months,” the DCW said.

“The complainant told us that she was also brought to Delhi by the same agent and was raped at a hotel in Paharganj. The commission is assisting her in filing an FIR,” the DCW said.
