But after being rescued from sexual slavery, Ishika, now 24, has spent more than a decade trying to get justice against her traffickers. Despite the drawn-out case, she has not given up hope of seeing her abusers behind bars. “I will become a lawyer and take up cases of traffick- ing victims and fight them effectively,” said Ishika, one of nearly 20 sex trafficking survivors who will study law under a program launched by an anti-trafficking charity yesterdsy . “I was rescued 13 years ago but my case is still going on,” Ishika, who asked to be identified only by her first name, told the Thomson Reuters Foundation. “I often feel I am the accused and not the victim.

  • This Way Forward
    SAFFRON FASCISM Fake Killings : People as Trophies Subhash Gatade Truth is finally pot. People who had a faint glimmer of hope about Kausar Bi’s whereabouts finally know that she is no more. As the counsel for the Gujarat government himself admitted before the Supreme Court, she was killed, burnt and her ashes were thrown in some field. But it does not throw light on who killed her? It appears that Gujarat government wants to buy time to divulge the information. But the CID report filed by Ms Geeta Johri is very clear on this aspect. The interim report of the IG(CID) Geeta Johri—who investigated the case as per instruction from the Supreme Courst—knew that Kausar Bi was personally strangulated to death by D H Vanjara. Imagine the head of the Anti-terrorism Squad, who till the other day functioned as DIG killing an innocent woman and using his position to cover up the crime. As things stand today the story of the encounter killing of Soharabuddin Sheikh in cold blood, followed by similar killing of his friend Tulsiram Prajapati and later his own wife Kausar Bi is getting murkier everyday. Thanks to Ruhabuddin Sheikh who persisted in his attempts to get justice and ultimately approached the Supreme Court to intervene in this matter in which his brother was killed in a fake encounter and sister in-law had gone missing. Today three senior police officers—two from Gujarat and one from Rajasthan are behind bars charged with kidnapping and murder of an innocent citizen, if the Gujarat government is compelled to follow the leads then it will have to apprehend more than two dozen other police officials from both the states who participated in the whole operations at some level.
