Actor-turned politician Sunny Deol has recently rescued a 45-year-old woman named Veena Bedi, who was sold as a slave in Kuwait.
Veena Bedi, was reportedly sold to a Pakistani man by a travel agent who had conned her into believing that he would help her land a housekeeping job for a salary of Rs 30,000 per month.
