Teen Walks 150 km After Forced Labor Severed Arm
Imagine a 15-year-old boy was tricked into working at a farm.
He was supposed to get paid, but instead, he was stuck in a room and didn't get any food.
He hurt his arm while working, and it got cut off.
Then, he walked a long way to get help.
Some nice teachers and police officers helped him, but his family is struggling to pay for his care and might not report the farm because they need money to survive.
A 15-year-old boy from Bihar escaped forced labor in Haryana.
The boy walked 150 km with a severed arm after an accident at the dairy farm.
He was promised wages of Rs 10,000 but was confined and denied food.
Teachers and police in Nuh provided assistance, arranging medical care.
The family declined to file a police case due to financial constraints.
