17 years old she was a victim of child marriage which eventually turned into abuse and domestic violence. She was married two years ago. Abuse and violence was too much for her, so she decided to leave the house. She could not go to her parents becuase of social stigma. She catch a bus to Kathmandu. It was an unknown city for her, but she thought it a good choice.
She ended in the city with 4 million people. She was wondering in bus station. Police rescued her and sent to the child rescue department (also called 104). 104 referred her to Bethany's shelter home.
"Rescue is not the only goal. Without a safe trauma informed care facility our rescue alone does not worth', says the 104 representative.
She is now living in our rescue shelter with 17 other girls who have experienced trafficking, sexual abuse and domestiv violence.
