Mumbai Girls Garbage Dump

The Bombay High Court brought cheer to a family in Nagpada by hearing, and accepting, their plea to be reunited with the two foster daughters they had found in a garbage dump 11 years ago. The family was torn apart two months ago, after a woman turned up to claim the girls as her own.

Over 100 women from a slum in south Mumbai on Thursday demonstrated outside two police stations after a three-and-half-year-old girl from the area was found murdered, police said. Identified as Karishma Chavan, the victim's body was found dumped in garbage on Wednesday at Nariman Point in south Mumbai.
