68 Rescued from Human Traffickers at the Nepal Border
Border agents stopped traffickers from luring 68 people out of Nepal.
Nearly three quarters of the victims met their traffickers online, mostly on Facebook. The criminals built relationships with their targets and then, after figuring out their needs, offered them romantic relationships, false jobs or even trips to see relatives that lived across the border. Thanks to our border agents, these people will never see what REALLY awaited them on the other side.
