Forced into flesh trade, girl runs away from ‘parents’
By Neel S
A 23-year-old woman ran away from her posh Lokhandwala home after allegedly being forced into prostitution by her ‘parents.’
The victim told the police she suspects that, as a child, she was sold to the couple that claimed to be her parents and alleged that she had been forced into prostitution for almost a decade.
A police source said that victim alleged that she was made to dance in the city’s bars from the time she was 14, and that she was repeatedly sold to rich customers who were looking for young girls.
The woman also alleged that, as part of the flesh trade, she was forced to travel to Dubai on several occasions and that her ‘parents’ submitted fake documents for her passport, which was made in Agra several years ago.
The police source said that JCP (Crime) Sanjay Saxena has taken a serious note of the complaint and has instructed the crime branch sleuths to make inquiries into the case. Saxena did not respond to an SMS Mirror sent asking whether a probe has been initiated into the case.
