Delhi: In a chilling case, a 15-year-old girl sold to a trafficker by her mother, was rescued by the Delhi Commission for Women on Sunday. She also informed her rescuers that her mother had also sold her one-year-old brother to a trafficker a month ago.

The DCW was quoted by a report in the News 18 as saying, the girl, who was a resident of Bawana, a town in north Delhi, was staying with her mother, step-father and four siblings. They said that on September 15, the woman asked her to accompany her to a relative’s house in Badarpur but instead took her to a hotel in Nizamuddin, where she saw her talking to a man named Shahid.  Later, the woman told the girl that she had to go somewhere and Shahid would take her home.
