She suspected that the girls who were sisters and had come from Bhutan, were in danger. Not willing to give up, she sent two of her staff members to Delhi on receiving a clue that they had been sent there. Twice before this incident, the girls had confessed that they were in the trade by force but had refused to say so in front of the cops. But Trivani persisted; not only did she track them down in Delhi but even brought their widowed mother from Bhutan to make sure that they would return to safety. This entire search took almost 8-9 months. Today, the girls are in their country.
