Meet Aamir, a child who escaped from his drunken father. Penniless and begging for food one day, a couple approached and gave him some cakes. They promised him a better life, and he thought they were social workers. But sadly that was FAR from the truth.
The food was drugged and Aamir became drowsy. They took him to a hospital where a doctor literally amputated his legs. So those scenes you may have seen in Slumdog Millionaire are very realistic.
Aamir was in much pain after the operation but he was just one of the MANY who is victim to these gangs in India and all over Asia really who kidnap children and deliberately cripple them and force them to beg. They do this because they think a cripple child will elicit more sympathy and more money.
Such a harsh world.
In case you missed it, here’s where you can view Slumdog Millionaire.
