Kathmandu, November 19
Seven Nepalis including four minor girls and three women who were trafficked to a brothel in Assam state of India have been rescued recently. Local police rescued the victims after getting a request from a Nepali NGO, Shakti Samuha.
After receiving information that some Nepali women including adolescents were employed in the brothel in Silchar, the NGO had sent a seven-member mission to the city.
