Parents came out to sell the child on the street.
In Jamui, the case of a mother selling her lactating baby girl to rescue her debt-ridden husband has come to light. The contractor has taken his 10-year-old son hostage in exchange for Rs. The case is of the old market Musahari Tola of Jhajha police station area.
In this case, the parents said that both of us do the work of picking up the garbage. Last year, a loan of Rs 5000 was taken from the contractor by his brother Karu Manjhi. Now it has increased to 25 thousand rupees. Being such a huge amount, he was unable to give. Being unable to pay the loan money, selling the girl child was the last resort. We have two sons and a 2 month old baby girl.
The woman had gone out to sell this girl.
People caught selling the girl near the police station
In fact, the matter came to light when the victim’s parents had reached the Jhajha police station today to sell their child. A woman was also buying that girl for 30 thousand rupees. The people around here got a clue and a crowd gathered there. When people started questioning, everything opened up. Here amidst the uproar, the woman who was buying the girl escaped.
The girl’s father Mengu Manjhi.
The girl’s father Mengu Manjhi and mother Madhu Manjhi told that last year he used to work with his brother Karu Manjhi in Ramgarh, Jharkhand. He had taken a loan of Rs 5000 from a contractor. Later I came back to Jhajha. Now my brother and his wife Anita Devi started asking for money continuously. But the money could not be found.
According to Mengu Manjhi, my 10-year-old son Sonu left the house two days ago and did not return after that. Brother told me that the child is with him as a hostage. Take away the loan by paying 25 thousand rupees.
Regarding the incident, Rajesh Sharan, Jhajha Police Station said that the application has not been given by the victim. Action will be taken on receipt of the application.
