Courts Deny Bail in Separate Child Trafficking Cases Involving Minors

Courts Deny Bail in Separate Child Trafficking Cases Involving MinorsPreviousNext

Two courts recently denied bail to men accused in separate child trafficking cases involving minors, including very young children. In Jharkhand, 52 children were rescued from a trafficking network linked to abduction for begging and theft. In Delhi, a court highlighted the societal harm of trafficking after investigating the illegal adoption of a baby born to a rape victim. Both cases emphasize ongoing efforts to combat child trafficking and protect vulnerable children across states.
