Beaten, burnt with cigarettes, and locked in darkness for days - the horrific abuse of a minor girl working as domestic help for a family in Maharashtra's Nagpur has shocked neighbours.
According to the police, in Nagpur's Atharva Nagari Society, a family brought a girl, 12, from Bengaluru to do household work at their home. The girl was subjected to physical abuse by her employers, who burned her with a hot pan and cigarettes if she made mistakes. She was burnt with hot kitchen utensils, cigarettes, and had injuries to her private parts. She was also locked in the house for four days while her employers went to Bengaluru.
The girl's ordeal came to light when she was found by the neighbours. They heard her cries for help and saw her trying to break out of the house through a window. The neighbors brought her out of the house, gave her food and water, and then informed the police.
