  • The moment Somila Tanti, 18, is renuited with her father Ramesh Tanti, who travelled to Delhi to try to rescue her three years after was trafficked from their home on the Nahorani tea estate, Sonitpur, Assam. She had been sold on b y an agent and was working as a domestic slave in Delhi.<br />
Illegally low wages on Assam’s tea estates mean parents cannot afford to look after their children and their daughters are easy prey for traffickers who lure them to Delhi with promises of a new life, then sell them as domestic slaves. <br />
Several girls are known to have been trafficked from the Nahorani tea plantation in Sonitpur, Assam. The estate is operated by Amalgamated Plantations, which is owned by a consortium led by Tata Tetley and including the World Bank’s investment arm.

  • Elaina Kujar, 20, in her home in Dolahat tea estate, Laluk, Lakhimpur district, Assam.<br />
She was trafficked to Delhi at the age of 14 and was raped by her employer. She has given written permission for her name and photograph to be published to expose the trade.<br />
Tens of thousands of girls as young as 12 are trafficked from India’s remote north east every year.  Many are the daughters of tea estate workers, whose low pay means they are unable to afford to look after their families. They end up working as servants in the Indian capital New Delhi or trafficked on to the Middle East and the UK.  Many suffer physical and sexual abuse at the hands of employers who keep them locked up in their homes. Few receive the wages they were promised. The trade is driven by the low wages paid to tea plantation workers, who cannot afford to keep their daughters.

  • Mohammed, with daughter Amena on his shoulders, walked across the border from Serbia to Hungary on a railway line cutting through a razor wire fence.  Like many refugees, he paid several thousand pounds to traffickers to help reach the  European Union. Once inside Hungary, they hope to take advantage of lax or non-existent border controls to travel on and claim asylum in their country of choice.

  • Police try to control refugees who have crossed into the European Union over the border from Serbia into Hungary.

  • Women in bikinis stroll past fellow tourists in burkinis - also known as hasemas - on the beach at Alanya on the gulf  of Antalya, Turkey.  The upmarket Bera Alanya hotel in the resort is aimed at conservative middle class Muslims who prefer women to cover up in public.  The Turkish constitution prevents women covering their heads in official buildings - including universities - but the right-wing, religiously conservative AK party is keen to overturn this law.  The party has repeatedly clashed with the country's military leaders who regard themselves as protectors of the secular constitution.
