February 22, 2025

ABOUT 40 youths from Punjab - among the 102 from India who left for the US via 'dunky route' in 2010- have been missing for the last 15 years.

- HARPREET BAJWA

Ravinder Singh, son of Daljit Singh of Taprian village in Fategarh Sahib district, went to the US on September 15, 2010 and the family has no clue about him till now.

"My elder son, who had done Class XII, was a driver and wanted to go abroad for a livelihood. We got in touch with travel agents based in Panchkula and the deal was settled for ₹20 lakh. We paid them ₹5 lakh as advance and we were told that our son along with others will be directly taken to Mexico and then they will enter the US. But they were flown to Managua from Delhi and received by another agent. Again we paid them ₹5 lakh as demanded," Singh told this newspaper.
