157 people rescued from traffickers at the Nepal border!
53 of those rescued were children, including a toddler and a 4-year-old, who were each traveling with their mother.
To avoid public shame, most families don’t press charges against the traffickers, which means these criminals are free to try to traffick people out of the country again. But thanks to the bravery of a few, we’re starting to see that change! Two survivors, 15 and 21 years old, decided to press charges, leading to the arrest of four traffickers!

The traffickers had targeted victims of all ages, most of whom were young adults, but we also managed to rescue 5 children. Two of the children, just 2 and 7 years old, were being trafficked out with their mothers.
Traffickers in Nepal lure their victims with promises of love, lucrative careers, or a better life. Once our agents shed light on their true purpose, victims and their families rarely prosecute the criminals because of the shame that comes with the admission.
But one of these brave families decided to press charges this time, and the trafficker was arrested! We hope more families will follow their lead in putting these traffickers behind bars. You can read more about Rescue at the border on our blog.
