GANG-RAPE: 2 NE Girls rescued from Human Trafficking in Delhi

New Delhi, Sept 18, 2014: In a shocking incident, two young girls—both underage from Manipur—were allegedly raped by a group of men in South Delhi’s Malviya Nagar on Wednesday. On Tuesday, August 26, there was a party at one Ashu Kapoor’s residence where some boys entered, leading to a fight.

At the party, the girls were forced to drink alcohol. One of the survivors managed to escape, crying for help. Neighbours reported seeing the girl and informed the police, who then rescued her from being locked inside the house. The incident occurred at Khirki Extension, Malviya Nagar in South Delhi.

According to the FIR, the two survivors, hailing from Manipur, were lured by a girl from Nagaland named Manau under the false promise of a job at a beauty parlour. Manau brought them to Guwahati and handed them over to a man named Jimmy, who then brought them to Delhi and handed them to Ashu Kapoor in Malviya Nagar. Upon arrival, Ashu Kapoor told the girls that they were unfit to work as domestic helpers and instructed them to go back.

In such dire circumstances and without any money, the two girls were forced to sign a contract and subsequently coerced into a flesh trade operation run out of Kapoor’s home. “Men would visit us,” the girls lamented.

Both survivors provided statements before the magistrate at Saket Court on Thursday. A case has been registered at the Malviya Nagar police station under sections 376 (rape), 370 (trafficking), and 34 (common intention) of the Indian Penal Code (1860). However, no arrests had been made by the time of this report. According to the latest updates, MLC reports have confirmed the occurrence of rape.
