Human Trafficking
Mission Report 010325
Location:
Between cities
Controlled:
City officials
Situation:
The building is a standalone bamboo structure with no indoor plumbing. It is located among seven similar buildings, each hosting different types of businesses. Customers come to this area at all hours. Although police provide general protection for the area, they are not stationed nearby. Two guards roam around the building, which houses 21 girls aged 9 to 14 in poor condition. The location is accessible by a single road, with a side road primarily used by farmers that leads to smaller villages.
Plan:
Three open-bed trucks with canvas-covered backs will be used to transport the girls. Four teammates will ride in the back of these trucks to calm the girls during the extraction. Seventeen teammates on motorbikes will provide cover at the front and rear of the convoy, as the area is considered high-risk. Nurses will accompany the group to address immediate medical needs, as no doctors were available to assist.
The trucks, being common in the area, should not attract attention. One truck will approach the front of the building, carrying four teammates who will neutralize the guards quietly and signal when the area is secure. Once the all-clear is given, the remaining trucks will arrive, and the girls will be carefully escorted to the vehicles. They will then be taken to a safe house for initial medical care and a briefing about their future. If everything proceeds smoothly, they will travel several hours to their new home, where they can begin a new life.
Execution:
The plan was carried out successfully without setting off any alarms. The guards were subdued, and the girls were safely extracted. Their condition was worse than anticipated, but the team was prepared for this possibility.
The girls spent two days at the safe house, receiving care and learning about what lay ahead. Afterward, they were transported in a large bus to their new home, where they could start their new lives in a safe and supportive environment. Total time in and out was 7 minutes.
