We demand an immediate ban on fraudulent operations that recruit women through fake job offers and deliberately conceal the true nature of engagement, resulting in coercive control, unlawful detention, financial and medical abuse, document manipulation, and cross-border exploitation.

Under Article 3 of the UN Palermo Protocol, trafficking includes recruitment by deception, abuse of vulnerability, and concealment of exploitative purpose. The practices described meet this threshold and therefore constitute trafficking and trafficking-related offences, triggering mandatory state obligations to prevent, investigate, prosecute, and protect.

We call for:

Immediate prohibition of all such fraudulent recruitment and engagement operations
Criminal prosecution and civil liability for recruiters, intermediaries, beneficiaries, and complicit officials
Independent, international investigations into institutional failures and record manipulation
Survivor protection, reparations, and guarantees of non-repetition
Institutions Requiring Urgent International Scrutiny
United Kingdom: Home Office, NHS, CQC, IOPC, relevant police forces
India: Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA), Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), NHRC, NCW, State Police Authorities
International: UN Special Rapporteur on Violence Against Women, UNODC, WHO, Interpol
This is not employment or protection—it is recruitment by deception and exploitation, sustained by institutional silence.
Ban the operations. Prosecute the offenders. Investigate the institutions.
