Telangana Man Allegedly Sent to Russia-Ukraine War Zone After Job Agent Deal
Dommati Kishan, a man from Narayanpur village in Telangana's Rajanna Sircilla district, traveled to Russia in early September after paying a Sircilla-based agent Rs 2.5 lakh for a promised warehouse job. Instead, he reportedly ended up in the Russia-Ukraine war zone, where he has been trained to fight and holds a Russian military ID and passport. His wife Rakshita, who is pregnant, has sought his repatriation and lodged a complaint alleging cheating and possible human trafficking. Authorities have intensified investigations into the agent and the situation of other Telugu men similarly affected.
