Once a national-level hockey goalkeeper and a customs officer in India, Anson has spent the last 30 years rescuing women and children from brothels, often putting his own safety at risk. Today, we hear his story - what drove him to take on this mission, what those rescues really involve, and how he helps survivors rebuild their lives.
