GOBRA, India, Feb 27 (Thomson Reuters Foundation) — For more than a year, Nasima Gain did not leave her house. She spoke to no one, refused to meet friends and lay in bed.

Closeted in her room, the Indian teenager was consumed by guilt, blaming herself for being snatched from her village, taken to a neighbouring state and sex trafficked into a brothel.

She recalls the day of her abduction, aged just 14, vividly.

"I was dressed in a sari that day because we were celebrating [a festival]," she said at a relative's home.

"I think it was the first time I was wearing a sari and remember being very happy. That morning, I never imagined that I would be so terrified by night," she said from Gobra, a village of fewer than 500 families along the India-Bangladesh border.
