The Navi Mumbai police rescued a 17-year-old girl, who was pushed into sex trade by her uncle, after her 21-year-old sister gathered courage and approached an Andheri-based NGO seeking help. In her police complaint, the survivor’s sister, who now lives in a group home, said that their uncle had even forced her into the sex business to recover the money he had spent for their parents’ treatment. After she turned 18, she started looking for a job, as she had to leave the place. However, she had no option but to visit the ladies service bars in Navi Mumbai to earn a living. A police officer said that the accused had made a fake aadhaar card in her name, as it was mandatory to show her age as 22 years for entry in the bars.
