Nine men from Pilibhit, Uttar Pradesh, who were stranded in Kyrgyzstan for three months due to a job scam, have returned home. They were allegedly promised jobs abroad and paid up to Rs 4 lakh each by a recruiting agent, but upon arrival, they were left without work, held hostage, and forced into labor. The scam came to light through social media videos, prompting authorities and the Indian Embassy to facilitate their return. Investigations into the fraud are ongoing, with authorities urging public vigilance against such schemes.
