The youths, who were lured by fake job ads on social media, promising work abroad, were taken to Myanmar after reaching Thailand. The authorities acted swiftly to bring them back, and the rescued youths are now undergoing counselling.
The operation was led by the Jammu and Kashmir Police’s Special Task Force (STF), which received a tip-off about the youths being held captive in Myanmar. The STF, along with the Thai authorities, worked together to track down the youths and rescue them.
The investigation revealed that the youths had been lured by fake job ads on social media, which promised them high-paying jobs abroad. The scammers, who were operating from an unknown location, took advantage of the youths’ desperation for job opportunities and duped them into paying large sums of money for the promise of a job.
After reaching Thailand, the youths were taken to Myanmar, where they were forced to work in inhumane conditions. The authorities were informed about the incident by the youths’ families, who were worried about their safety.
The Jammu and Kashmir Police’s STF launched an investigation and traced the youths to Myanmar. The authorities worked with the Thai and Myanmar governments to track down the youths and rescue them.
In a dramatic operation, the STF and Thai authorities raided the location where the youths were being held captive and rescued them. The youths were found to be in a state of distress and were immediately taken to a safe location.
The rescued youths have been identified as residents of Jammu and Kashmir, who were studying in different colleges and universities. They were lured by the fake job ads and paid large sums of money for the promise of a job.
The Jammu and Kashmir Police have registered a case against the scammers and are investigating the incident. The authorities have also alerted the public about the scam and advised them to be cautious of such fake job ads.
The rescued youths are now undergoing counselling to deal with the trauma they have experienced. The authorities have also provided them with food and shelter.
The Jammu and Kashmir Police’s swift action has saved the youths from a life of slavery and exploitation. The authorities have also prevented a major human trafficking racket from operating in the region.
The incident highlights the importance of being cautious while looking for job opportunities abroad. The authorities have advised the public to verify the authenticity of job ads and to be wary of any job that requires them to pay large sums of money.
