Churu SP Jai Yadav said that the girl was handed over to her family Sunday.
Yadav said the girl's brother reported that his 18-year-old sister left home without informing anyone, taking along Rs 1 lakh and gold and silver jewellery. The police formed a team, contacted Delhi Police and the Oman embassy, and intercepted the girl at the international airport in Delhi, he said.
Yadav said that the girl was brainwashed by a man named Mohammad Islam on social media and was trapped by him. Three months ago, he arranged for her passport and transported her from Taranagar to Delhi Airport by cab. From there, he planned to take her to Muscat, Oman, by flight, where she would likely be sold. However, the police managed to intercept her beforehand. Action will be taken against Islam, a resident of Taranagar who lives in Muscat, Oman, he said.
Yadav appealed to the public to monitor their children's activities when giving them mobile phones.

GRP suspends 3 railway cops booked for ‘extorting Rs 30,000' from Rajasthan man
The Government Railway Police (GRP) suspended three police personnel who were booked for allegedly extorting Rs 30,000 from a Rajasthan man at Mumbai Central railway station. While two of them were identified based on CCTV cameras, a third was identified on the basis of their questioning. No arrests have been made in the case as yet. A senior official on Tuesday confirmed that three GRP personnel were suspended after they were identified as the persons responsible for threatening and extorting a Rajasthan resident and his daughter. Sources said that the GRP brass was also informed about two rooms at Mumbai Central railway station platform number 5 that were allegedly used by the accused for extorting passengers. The two rooms do not have CCTV cameras. 'The allegations are being verified and CCTV cameras may be put up at these rooms to prevent their misuse,' a senior official said. The official said that the probe into the extortion FIR has been handed over to the crime branch which is in the process of recording the statement of the trio. 'We have asked the complainant in the case to come to the city to record his detailed statement in the matter,' a crime branch official said. The alleged incident took place on August 10 in Mumbai when the man and his daughter had come to the Mumbai Central railway station to take a train for Rajasthan around 10.30pm. Two GRP constables allegedly started checking their bags and during the search, they found a gold piece weighing 14 grams that was wrapped inside a paper and Rs 31,900. They took the man to the office of who they claimed was a senior officer. The complainant alleged he was threatened that he would be beaten up and kept in the prison all night and the gold would be seized by the magistrate. Scared, he said, he allowed the three men in khaki to take Rs 30,000 and took a train for Rajasthan. On reaching there, he filed a complaint at the local Ratangadh police station in Rajasthan. Since the incident had taken place in Mumbai, the FIR was transferred to the Mumbai GRP. A senior official said that three who have been suspended include an Assistant Sub Inspector and two constables. The three have been absconding and the police are looking for them, the official said. The official added that four others from GRP who were also suspected to be linked to the incident have been transferred.
