Rudan @ Reshma to Ranchi for providing job, thereafter, she was taken to Delhi by Subas Singh for job and thereafter after enquiring it was found that the girl was employed in the house of Vimal

Singh and she was recovered from there.

3. Learned counsel for the applicants submits that the girl was taken away with the consent of her mother and it is not a case of trafficking or the girl was taken forcefully. He would further submit that only an amount of Rs.5000/- was demanded to sent back the girl, therefore, no offence is committed by the applicants and they may be released on bail.
