The woman allegedly told Rakesh he would have to pay Rs 2,500 for the girl. However, they told the woman they were carrying Rs 700 in cash and would need to withdraw more money from an ATM.

“We got out on the pretext of withdrawing money from the ATM. Later my crew, along with our woman colleague, entered the house and told her that we had captured the entire conversation on our hidden cameras,” Rakesh told police.

Reporter should be booked for soiling the RBI notes since he signed on those. As per RBI its a crime to write anything on the notes. This bugger should be behind bars now too.

I agree with you. One did not expect such report from Indian Express. It was a direct attack on our country's armed forces.
