The police FIR states that the victim’s ordeal began when she went missing from her home and she was then allegedly sold to a hotel owner by a rickshaw puller.

Other hotel operators are also implicated in the minor's sexual exploitation, and there are reports that an attempt was made to cover up the entire incident.
