Tribal girls trafficked from Jharkhand could be forced into
pornography to cater to a global demand for their dark complexion,
police and activists have said, highlighting the ordeal of thousands of
women preyed upon by organised cartels in the state.
Both police and activists also cited revelations by rescued victims
and growing evidence to claim that there was a strong possibility of
traffickers being involved in the business of making pornographic films
which are then sold to adult websites.
Thousands of tribal girls, most of them minors, are trafficked from
Jharkhand’s villages to bigger cities across the country every year to
work as domestic help and sex slaves. These children are often subjected
to physical and sexual torture, leading to serious ailments and even
death at times.
