A 25-year-old man, Mohammed Yusuf Ansari, from Sonapur in Bhandup, fell victim to a fraudulent deal. He was sent to the Vietnam border under the pretext of a job and was asked to engage in fraudulent activities across the country. Suspecting something was wrong, Yusuf ran away from the place and reached Mumbai with the help of family and friends. Yusuf shares his story about the journey from Mumbai to Cambodia and Vietnam back to Mumbai.

Yusuf, who completed his college in Mulund, lent a hand at his father's paan shop after his father's passing. “In May 2023, my father passed away, leaving me to support the family and manage the shop. Despite the financial strain, I remained vigilant for opportunities,” Yusuf said.
