Kolkata, Aug. 11 -- Five men were arrested after a minor West Bengal girl who had been missing for two years was traced to Pali in Rajasthan by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), police said. "On the basis of information received from sources and analysing call detail records (CDR), leads were obtained that the victim might have been sent to Pali in Rajasthan. A team went to Pali and rescued the girl from a house on Friday," the CBI said in a statement on Saturday. The girl, who went missing from East Burdwan district, was allegedly sold twice for marriage after being shown as an adult in affidavits, an officer said. According to CBI officers, this could be part of a larger human trafficking racket. The Calcutta High Court handed over the case to the federal agency on February 8, 2024, after finding "laxity and lacuna" on the part of the local police and the state Criminal Investigation Department (CID). "The court was told that two persons, who were arrested by the local police, were granted statutory bail because they were political functionaries of the ruling dispensation and were close to certain politically influential persons," said a lawyer aware of the developments. On the orders of the Calcutta high court, the CBI took up the probe after registering a case on February 16, 2024....
