47 Victims Intercepted at the Nepal Border
47 people, over half of them children, were rescued at the Nepal border earlier this year.
Our team of border agents has been working tirelessly to stem the tide of victims being trafficked out of Nepal. Lured by fabricated relationships or fake job offers, these hopeful individuals are rendered powerless and subjected to exploitation once across the border. Thanks to our agents and the survivors’ bravery, these 47 won’t have to face those horrors.
