5 Members Of A Family, All Ragpickers, Drown In Drain in Delhi | Read
An open drain in Goyla Khurd Village in Delhi became a death trap for five ragpickers, including three children, who were hunting for scrap. The minors -- Sahidul, 10, Safikul, 9, and Lalsun, 12 -- had apparently entered the drain after they saw some glass bottles, but got caught in the sludge. When Hasidul, 26, and Afsae Ali, 30, tried to rescue the kids, they, too, were trapped.
