VIJAYAWADA: To mark the International Human Rights Day, Vimukhthi (survivors’ collective) extended their support to the #MeToo movement here on Sunday. The officials said that the victims of human trafficking also want to voice their horrifying experiences through this movement and thus they have decided to join the campaign.

“We were not shocked by the revelations made by various women through this campaign. We have been through beatings, deprivations of the worst kind, rape and what not. But so have they. They are not alone. We are not alone,” said one of the rescued victim. They also discussed the abuse of actress Tanushree Dutta. The officials said they were hoping for the victims they come across to have the courage Tanushree Dutta has.
