The teenager, on promise of marriage, was trafficked by one Sanjay Chaudhary from Jharkhand, who sold her to Pawan Singh of Patan village in Rajasthan for two lakh rupees.

Soon, she began to be tortured by Singh in his house, who would tell her that he bought her for 200000.

After an arduous time, Basanti Kumari managed to call her father a few days ago and narrate the incident.

Later, Banarsi Bhuiyan filed a complaint to the Child Welfare Comitee (CWC), Garhwa.

“I have interrogated, and sent a letter to the headquarter DSP cum Nodal Officer SJPU to rescue the girl,” said CWC Chairman Upendra Dubey.
