Hamida Bano, who left India 20 years ago in search of a job in gulf countries, had no idea that she would end up trafficked to Pakistan. Thanks to two YouTubers—one based in Kurla and one in Karachi, Pakistan, she was virtually reunited with her family in Kurla. Bano, in her mid 50s, and her family are now urging the Indian embassy in Pakistan to repatriate her as she does not have any money or even a passport.
