PUNE, INDIA (ANS) -- Acting on an information given by the Indian Rescue Mission (IRM), a Christian social organization, police in the Indian city of Pune on Friday, January 15, 2010 raided the third floor of a building in the city’s red light area and rescued three girls who had been sold, trafficked and forced into prostitution.

The team confirmed the information, by going inside the brothel and having a secret talk with these girls and a girl told the team member that they were being “forcibly kept” there and they did not want to continue in this business any longer.
The, the IRM investigators discovered that girls were brought to Pune on the pretext of providing them jobs.
After this, IRM people met with local police officers and requested them to take action based on the information. At first, the police did not seem to be co-operative, so IRM tried to contact senior police officials and following this, police agreed to come for the rescue operation and then on January 15 at midnight this brothel was raided and the girls were rescued.
Police also arrested four brothel keepers who hailed from Nepal and booked them under various sections of Prevention of Immoral Trafficking Act. However, the main culprit managed to give the police the slip.
Narrating the experience that these girls had to go through, one of the minor girls said, “A girl named Kajol along with an unidentified person brought me and my maternal cousin from Jalpaigudhi (name of a place). We were sent to different brothels and then were forced into prostitution.”
She added that the brothel keeper used to threaten and rebuke her.
Another minor girl said that she was brought to the city on the pretext of giving her a job. “I have done my schooling until Standard IX and had come here expecting that I would get a decent job. However, I was fooled and pushed into flesh trade,” she said
Another woman said that she was brought by train from West Bengal state and was given some pills after which she fell asleep. “When I asked Tara aunty (brothel keeper) to let me go, she told me that I can but only after I earn enough money. Now I have to earn and this dhanda (business) is the only way out.”
The rescued girls are now placed at a government after care home.
In the same way, every day hundreds of minor girls aged 13-16 yrs are sold, trafficked and forced into prostitution in the red light areas districts of this country. But neither the government nor the police authorities bother to attend to solve this heinous crime in this peace loving nation. Also, Christians who are called “peacemakers” hardly find any time to look into their surrounding to offer their helping hand, hear their voice of these innocent ones crying out in need for justice.
Most Christians in India often have the notion that Gospel is just sharing about Christ, but they fail to understand that it’s not just sharing the Gospel, but suffering with the ones that suffer and helping those who need our help and support. That’s what the Gospel of Jesus Christ is all about.
Our God is a God of justice. He teaches us to be makers of peace. God places a responsibility on His children to offer help and provide Justice to these victims.
We can make this world a better place if we join our hands in working with people who toil for the cause of these young minor girls. We think we suffer in life, but do we suffer as much as these little ones do? If we think our society is unfair to us, then how about to these ones? If we think we are unhappy, look at these ones?
In an age where they should receive education, the warmth of a mother and love of the father, from evening till late night, they attend customers that come in the brothels. Then the brothel keeper takes the money paid by the customer for sex and she spends it for her family. During their sickness, they desire their mother to be by her side, but here no one takes them even to the nearest hospital. Can we feel their pain? Can we hear their cry?
These little ones are sold, trafficked, and are denied justice, sexually harassed and exploited.
Indian Rescue Mission was started with the help and support of Dan Wooding and ANS readers. God helped us to rescue many girls out from prostitution and still we will continue to work for this noble cause with all your support and help.
An Organization called EquipNepal in USA has partnered with Indian Rescue Mission, India and has kindly agreed to accept funds for the Indian Rescue Mission project. If you are led by the Lord to support this cause, you can donate by sending checks or money orders made out to EquipNepal and including a note: “for Indian Rescue Mission.”
