Hyderabad, January 24, 2015:  More than 200 children working as bonded labourer were rescued by the police in an early morning raid in the Bhavani Nagar area in Hyderabad on Saturday. 10 people have been arrested, among them Yasin Pehelwan, a muscleman, who reportedly brought the children after paying money to their parents, the police said.

The children were brought from Uttar Pradesh and Bihar after paying around Rs.20,000 to their parents and held captive in a building, the police said. The police said that these children were kept in an unhygienic condition and some even had untreated wounds.

At least 500 policemen were involved in the raids which were carried out at multiple locations in Hyderabad. The police said that the raids were meant to look for illegal financiers and history-sheeters but they stumbled on these children, quite unexpectedly.

In another case, an 11-year-old boy was found dead at a state-run rescue home for street children and child labourers in Saidabad area with police probing if he was sexually assaulted. The boy was found dead on Wednesday. Nail marks were found on his neck, said inspector A Srinvasulu of Saidabad police station.

"The body was handed over to his father today. It has been alleged that a 16-year-old boy at the rescue home killed him after attempting to sodomise him. Autopsy has been conducted and we are waiting for the report," he said. The police have registered a case of custodial death under the Criminal Procedure Code.

"Once we get the report, likely to be submitted tomorrow, we will proceed accordingly," the officer said. The director of department of juvenile welfare had yesterday suspended two supervisors of the children’s home after the death came to light.
