The Inside Story
15-Year-Old Girl Forced into Prostitution by Greedy Parents
NEW DELHI - A 15-year-old girl was forced into prostitution by her parents who sold her to various pimps. The girl managed to escape from the trafficker's clutches and hid at a shelter in western Uttar Pradesh. When her parents couldn't find her, they sought the help of the police to trace her, leading to their own arrest. The teenager has been rescued from Sambhal in Uttar Pradesh.
The girl's father, who supplies vegetables at the wholesale market in Ghazipur, brought her to the capital from his native village, on the promise of providing her with better educational facilities. Her parents introduced her to a pimp involved in several cases of trafficking across three states. The girl made three attempts to run away from her north Rohini residence, but each time, she was caught and beaten up by her father.
The victim attended to clients every night, and the money was shared by the pimp and her parents. As money started flowing in, her parents' greed increased, and they ordered her to stay at a brothel run by the pimp. The girl was eventually sold to another pimp and was rescued last month when she found an opportunity to run away. Her parents, the pimps, and the person who bought her have been arrested, and the victim will be produced before a Child Welfare Committee.
