The KwaZulu-Natal social development department is working to reunite four young women rescued from an alleged human traffic syndicate in Durban with their families.
The job seekers were allegedly lured from Johannesburg to Durban with the promise of call centre positions but instead learnt they were to be part of a sex trade racket.
Police said the four were rescued from a plush Durban North home last week after one of them managed to raise the alarm.“The preliminary report from our team of social workers stated that the young ladies who were rescued are in safe hands. “A dedicated team of SAPS and department officials would not place the lives of these women at risk. The social workers are handling the psychosocial intervention while police are preparing for the case. Once that process is completed, the women will be integrated/reunited with their families,” she said.
