Delhi-based couples are luring Kashmiri girls into prostitution.

The tip of the iceberg is exposed but lot more will cause serious embarassment to the Congress Government.

According to media reports, a BSF jawan on Wednesday accused a Delhi-based couple of pushing his minor daughter - a former Miss Jammu runner-up - into prostitution after luring her to the national capital with promises of modelling jobs.

"My minor daughter was misled by Kamal Sehgal and Muskan (a couple from Delhi) whom she had met in Delhi when she was there for a stage show. They exploited her and pushed her into this racket," BSF Lance Naik Vinod Kumar told reporters here.

"She is yet to complete 18 years of age. Kamal and Muskan took my daughter to Delhi on a promise of giving her modelling assignments and did not allow her to return", he said.

The 2004 Miss Jammu second runner-up was arrested from Delhi alongwith the couple and three others on June 25 on charges of prostitution.

She was enrolled at a BSF school in Paloura and had discontinued her studies after failing to clear her ninth standard examinations.

Kumar had registered an FIR at police station Domona in the city on April 16 saying that his daughter had gone missing.

He cited the girl's birth certificate issued by the Commissioner of Jamnagar Mahanagar Palika in Gujarat in 1990, putting her date of birth at November 14, 1988, to prove that she was indeed a minor and had been hoodwinked by the Delhi couple.

Kumar, who lived with his family in a rented room at Paloura belt in outskirts of the city said he had full faith in his daughter, who, he believed, was innocent.
