SARGODHA: In a recent development, in the fight against human trafficking<\/a>, the Punjab police<\/span> busted <\/span>a gang in Sargodha and\u00a0<\/span>rescued<\/span>\u00a0two abducted female college students. <\/span><\/p>\n

The girls, both second-year students<\/a> at Government Degree College, had gone missing three months ago, <\/span>later it <\/span>emerged<\/span> that the students were lured by the gang <\/span>on<\/span>\u00a0promises of a job abroad. <\/span><\/p>\n

Fortunately, the police\u00a0<\/span>could<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>track them down and\u00a0<\/span>retrieve<\/span> the girls after <\/span>raids in at least 11 cities. The international gang had intended to sell the girls abroad, but thanks to\u00a0<\/span>swift action\u00a0<\/span>by<\/span>\u00a0the police, their plans were foiled. The leader of the gang has been arrested<\/span>\u00a0and\u00a0<\/span>the\u00a0<\/span>police are still\u00a0<\/span>hunting<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>other members.<\/p>\n

<\/span>This<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>has also\u00a0<\/span>been<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>uncovered<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>by<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>the<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>investigation that there are<\/span>\u00a0more girls in the\u00a0<\/span>possession of the\u00a0<\/span>gang<\/span>,\u00a0<\/span>whom<\/span>\u00a0the police are working\u00a0<\/span>to rescue<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span>It<\/span>\u00a0is a\u00a0<\/span>scary<\/span>\u00a0reminder of\u00a0<\/span>how<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>widespread<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>human trafficking\u00a0<\/span>has become\u00a0<\/span>in our society, and the importance of sustained <\/span>\u00a0efforts\u00a0<\/span>against<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>such<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>a<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>horrible<\/span>\u00a0crime. <\/span><\/p>\n

The Federal Investigation Agency<\/a> (FIA) <\/span>has also been\u00a0<\/span>working<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>against human trafficking, and yesterday,\u00a0<\/span>it<\/span> arrested two human traffickers from<\/span>\u00a0Gujranwala.<\/span><\/p>\n

The\u00a0<\/span>accused<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>included\u00a0<\/span>Ziaur Rehman and Ijaz Ahmed,\u00a0<\/span>who\u00a0<\/span>were\u00a0<\/span>selling<\/span>\u00a0fake visas to\u00a0<\/span>the<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>people\u00a0<\/span>with the help of agents in different areas of Pakistan<\/span>\u00a0and were also\u00a0<\/span>engaged<\/span>\u00a0in making and selling fake passports, visa stickers, and other travel documents.<\/p>\n

<\/span>From<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>the Shadman Colony area of Gujrat<\/span>,<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>the FIA\u00a0<\/span>recovered a large number of fake visa stickers<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>and\u00a0<\/span>machines used\u00a0<\/span>in<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>the<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>production of\u00a0<\/span>fake visa stickers<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>with<\/span>\u00a0passports from various countries,\u00a0<\/span>such<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>as\u00a0<\/span>Europe, China, the UK, and the US.<\/span><\/p>\n

This\u00a0<\/span>has<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>dealt\u00a0<\/span>a\u00a0<\/span>severe<\/span>\u00a0blow to the human trafficking network<\/span>\u00a0and\u00a0<\/span>is\u00a0<\/span>a\u00a0<\/span>result<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>of<\/span>\u00a0the\u00a0<\/span>extensive<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>efforts<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>made by\u00a0<\/span>the FIA<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>towards<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>effective<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>combating<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>of\u00a0<\/span>this crime. <\/span><\/p>\n
