<p>The woman, who was sold to a brothel in Pune for Rs 50,000, was in a rescue home for the last seven months, and hence missed out on the demonetisation deadline</p>


The survivor holds up her old currency notes worth Rs 10,000
When she was rescued from the brothel in Budhwarpeth, Pune, in December 2015, she had bigger battles to fight. This Bangladeshi national, who had been lured to India under the false pretext of a job, and was instead sold into commercial sex work, had to first find her way home. But now that clearance from her home country to accept her back has come through, she has tweeted a hand-written letter to the Prime Minister to help her convert the Rs 10,000 she had saved in the old denominations to new ones.
