This is the best summary I could come up with:
New Delhi: In an exclusive video clip shared with The Wire on Sunday, four Nepali men near the Russia-Ukraine frontline appealed for help from India, saying they had been scammed by visa agents who lured them to Russia by telling them that they would be hired as helpers.
The four men seen in the video identified themselves as Sanjay, Ram, Santosh and Kumar Srestha.
“We have big hopes from the Indian government that it wouldn’t disappoint us.
As per the Nepal government, over 400 Nepali men had gone to Russia and joined its army, lured by prospects of good salaries of about 300,000 Nepali rupees as ‘helpers’.
In December last year, the Nepali police in Kathmandu cracked down on several travel agents and arrested 18 people on charges of human trafficking and forgery.
As per Nepal’s foreign ministry, 12 Nepali men have died in the Russian-Ukraine war, and about 100 went missing or injured in Russia.
