Kashmir Police Investigate Transnational Human Trafficking in Region
18:50 15.02.2024 (Updated: 19:55 15.02.2024) Authorities in Jammu and Kashmir conducted searches at 18 locations in the Srinagar district of the Kashmir region on Thursday.
The agency said the case involved the illegal trafficking of foreign nationals into Indian territory,
particularly from Myanmar and Bangladesh. Officials claimed the 'infiltration' was part of a plan to '
establish sleeper cells to support, carry out or facilitate terrorist acts' in the region.
They conducted searches at 18 locations in Srinagar district of Kashmir region on Thursday and said it had seized incriminating material and documents such as identity cards, bank documents, passports and registers, besides digital devices like mobile phones and computers.
The raids were carried out at the offices of a number of consultancy firms that supply labour to households in the region.
"Investigations reveal that vulnerable foreign nationals are being trafficked to India under the guise of employment opportunities," the SIA said in a statement.
Officials alleged that the workers are sold to fake and illegal recruitment agencies and consultancies who further exploit them under the guise of job opportunities such as domestic help, maid and babysitter.
The agency described the recruitment as a "nefarious scheme" and a "wider conspiracy hatched by international terrorist organisations in collusion with notorious transnational human traffickers".
Today's search operation marks the SIA's continued efforts to dismantle the terror
ecosystem in Jammu and Kashmir and unravel the sinister designs of international terrorist organisations operating in the region," the SIA statement added.
