Indian workers walk out of US shipyard alleging human trafficking

WNYC Reporter Arun Venugopal
Over a hundred Indian H2B workers at a shipyard in Pascagoula, Mississippi, USA, have walked out, alleging they were lured into a human trafficking ring created by a company.

According to Arun Venugopal, WNYC correspondent, they plan to "report themselves to the Department of Justice as victims of trafficking” and demand prosecution of the company.
