As soon as a woman would apply, police officials said, they would be shown dreams of a bright future and then be asked to pay Rs 20,000 to undergo training for the job.
For months, Bihar's Muzaffarpur was home to a call centre from hell.
A company called DBR Networking had put up advertisements across social media, including Facebook, seeking agents for a call centre run by them. The catch: the applicants had to be women.
As soon as a woman would apply, police officials said, they would be shown dreams of a bright future and then be asked to pay Rs 20,000 to undergo training for the job, for which they would be asked to go to Muzaffarpur. The training would begin soon after, but so would a cycle of mental torture, fraud and, in some cases, even rape and forced abortions, said an official.
