Gorakhnath (Uttar Pradesh), June 26 : Police today rescued 11 Nepalese girls from being illegally trafficked to Gulf countries in Gorakhnath in Uttar Pradesh.
"We got the information from a social organisation working for rehabilitation of such women that Nepali girls were being taken to Mumbai for being sent to the Gulf countries. We have got 11 girls rescued," Circle Officer of Gorakhpur A K Singh said.
Singh said that three pimps, operating in the area for the past five years were also apprehended. The girls were brought to town in 2006, he added.
The middlemen had lured around 14,000 Nepali girls in the flesh trade since last year and were sent to the Gulf, Singh said.
"This is the third time I am sending them (girls) abroad. We were sending seven girls this time and out of them three have already been abroad once," said Deepak, one of the arrested middlemen.
