Just last week, Lindsay Lohan tweeted about saving 40 kids in India. She appeared to boast of her role in the rescue and suggested that it had changed her life. "Over 40 children saved so far...... Within one day's work...... This is what life is about..... Doing THIS is a life worth living!!!" she said. She later added: "Focusing on celebrities and lies is so disconcerting, when we can be changing the world one child at a time.... hope everyone can see that."

 But Lohan statement contradicted by social activist and lawyer, Bhuwan, responsible for rescuing the 40 children. Bhuwan has confirmed that Lohan wasn't even in the country when they were saved.

"She was not even in the country when this raid happened," he said. "We'll be complaining to the BBC and talking to our lawyers ... Would Lohan know where these workshops are?" Ruchira Gupta, an anti-trafficking campaigner, said: "If celebrities do it to get publicity then they are trivialising child-trafficking."

Despite initially reporting LiLo's tweet as a lie, the BBC has since released the following statement, "Lindsay Lohan has just completed filming in India for a BBC Three project on child trafficking. We would like to stress that she did not say she was present at the raid, this is a misinterpretation," the rep said. "She was merely referring to a raid that happened connected to child trafficking - the subject of the programme."
