Mukesh (21) and Sunny (24), cousins hailing from Haryana, assert that over 200 men, predominantly from South Asia, find themselves ensnared in camps established by deceitful immigration brokers within a Russian woodland along the Russia-Belarus border. Allegedly, these brokers coerce them into enlisting in the Russian military. According to the cousins, they were deceitfully redirected to Bangkok instead of Germany, where they were assured employment at a hotel. Subsequently, they were airlifted from Bangkok to Belarus, from where they crossed into Russia through the border forests where the camps were situated.
