New Delhi, Nov 23: The Delhi Commission for Women (DCW) on Wednesday issued a notice to the Delhi Police, mentioning that parents of the girls rescued earlier this week were receiving death and rape threats.
“Delhi Commission for Women received representations from the parents of the children, who were rescued earlier this week, stating that they are receiving death threat and rape threat from the son of the arrested placement agency owner,” a DCW statement said.
The DCW had busted a trafficking racket, which operated under the veil of a placement agency in the city and three children were rescued.
The racket was busted based on information given by parents from Jharkhand, who had come to the capital after they were not able to contact their children.
“They (complainant) have stated that the son of the arrested owner managed to reach the place where they are staying in Delhi and asked them to withdraw the case, threatening them with rape and murder,” the statement said.
DCW Chairperson Swati Jai Hind said: “It is an extremely serious matter and urgent action needs to be taken to ensure the safety of the children and their families.”
