Combating human trafficking is a challenging and ever-changing mixture of prevention, interception, and rescue efforts. All parts of this horror come into place and can be reviewed in other project areas taken on by the Captivating team in Nepal.
When Belinda* (name change for privacy) was rescued, she was taken directly to the nearby hospital for a full medical check. During her medical check, it was found that she was 7 months pregnant.
During counselling with her, she revealed that she met up with a boy in a hotel. Not long after, she started to feel ill and her belly began to grow.
She wanted to find the boy so she travelled to India. However, it wasn’t long when she was found lost and homeless by the police. In coordination with Indian police and Nepali police, she was brought home and referred to the Women’s Safe Haven.
She is safe now and the team at the Women’s Safe Haven are taking good care of her. She gave birth to a baby boy, Adrian (name changed for privacy), and both mother and baby are receiving very special care. She says that her baby has stolen her heart and helped her to overcome her painful days.
