The dreams of spending his life in the company of a beautiful girl ended in horror for a 31-year old chakda driver from a Sanand village, after the girl he ‘purchased’ for Rs45,000 duped him within hours.
Nathji Parmar (name changed), who paid the money to the alleged family of the girl, was in for a rude shock, after his effort failed in just 10 hours when the girl ran away even before reaching her new home. When the man with his scattered dreams went to the girl’s family home, he realised that he had been cheated by a gang of human traffickers.
Parmar, who was unable to find a life partner in his community was contacted by a person called Arjun. He eventually led him to a gang of alleged human traffickers on the pretext of providing him a girl as his life partner if he could pay Rs45,000 as the bride money. Parmar who was living with his paralysed mother decided to spend all his earning to ‘marry’ the girl. He packed his bags, called his relatives and met one Bansi at Vadodara ST stand a few days ago. Bansi came with the girl, introduced as Gita, and his alleged mother introduced herself as Revaba. Bansi has been introduced to Parmar by Arjun.
In what was even swift than chat mangni pat vyah, a popular Hindi phrase, all went to girl’s house and Gita was asked to go with Parmar without even marrying him. Revaben told Parmar that there is no need of marriage and he could take her daughter just by paying the money. “I paid Rs34,500 to her mother and Rs10,500 for other expenses like clothes and prasad at the temple,” he told DNA.
Parmar and his family members reached Sanand ST stand at 5 pm on the same day. Gita was being accompanied by her 'brother' introduced as Ramanbhai. While Parmar's family was waiting for another bus, Gita asked for toilet to her brother. On the pretext of going to the toilet, both disappeared from the bus stand.
Parmar and his family, after failing to find her till late in the evening, went to Vadodara to complain to Revaba, the 'mother' of the girl. When they told her what had happened, she said, "She cannot pay back the money because Bansi took away it money," Parmar said. When Parmar went to file a complaint against the culprits, the police refused to file complaint in Vadodara.
