    The National Investigation Agency has filed charges against three individuals for their alleged role in a human trafficking and cyber fraud racket operated from Myanmar by Indian and foreign handlers. According to the agency, the accused include an absconding suspect believed to be a Chinese national.

    The investigation revealed that the trio, along with other known and unknown associates, trafficked vulnerable Indian youth to the Myawaddy region of Myanmar. Victims were reportedly lured with false promises of overseas employment and later forced into cyber fraud operations targeting people across different countries.

    The NIA said it uncovered a well-organised network of traffickers and middlemen involved in illegal recruitment activities. The racket allegedly operated without proper authorization, sending Indian citizens abroad under the guise of legitimate job offers and then transferring them to criminal syndicates in Southeast Asia.

    The agency is continuing its investigation to identify additional members of the network and trace the financial and logistical links supporting the operation.
