SHILLONG, MAR 18: The Khasi Students’ Union Delhi Unit and the Special Police Unit for North‑East Region (SPUNER) have rescued two Khasi girls — aged 15 and 18, both from East Jaintia Hills — who had been lured to Delhi with promises of domestic work and then taken to a spa in Haryana where they were pressured into prostitution.

KSU Delhi Unit president Marbiang Khongwir said the girls managed to phone home in fear; their family alerted the union, which informed SPUNER.

“This incident is a stark warning of the dangers our youth face when seeking jobs outside the state,” Khongwir said.

“We urge parents and young people to be cautious of job offers from unverified sources. KSU remains committed to protecting Khasi lives in Delhi‑NCR.”

The union said an acquaintance from Meghalaya working in Delhi had brought the minors without parental consent.

A joint KSU‑SPUNER team located and freed them in Haryana.

KSU thanked Sabrina of ARC Meghalaya House and Joint CP Nabam Gungte of SPUNER, and SPUNER’s rescue team — Sub‑Inspector Ngalung Wung, ASI Naveen Kumar, HC Satish Kumar and W/CT Lalrinhluni.

The union said counseling is being arranged and efforts are underway to reunite the girls with their families in Meghalaya.
