Indian Authorities Rescue 60 Nationals from Myanmar Cyber Slavery Ring

A major international operation freed victims trafficked under false job promises, with five arrests made as investigations continue.

Sixty Indian nationals were rescued from a cyber slavery operation in Myanmar, where they were forced into cyber fraud under brutal conditions.
Victims were lured through social media with high-paying job offers, transported to Thailand, and then trafficked to Myanmar by agents posing as legitimate recruiters.
The victims were subjected to extreme physical and psychological abuse, including torture, to coerce them into participating in scams like digital arrest fraud and fake investment schemes.
Indian authorities, in collaboration with Thailand and Myanmar, conducted the rescue operation following complaints from victims' families, marking a significant international effort against human trafficking.
Five individuals, including actor Manish Grey alias Maddy, were arrested for their roles in the trafficking network, which involved fraudulent call centers and employment agencies.
