Delhi was again confronted with the ugly truth of child labour in its midst when a 10-year-old migrant working in a beedimaking unit died after being allegedly beaten up by his employer.The boy was about to be buried on Sunday morning when an alert cemetery caretaker called the police.
Moin,who had come from Madhubani in Bihar,had blue bruises all over his body,the police said.It's not clear whether he died of asphyxiation or of injuries received on Saturday night.
Kaleemullah,the owner of the beedi unit being run from a rented room in northwest Delhi's Bharat Nagar,is absconding since Saturday night.Neighbours claimed that the child had been working there for almost two months.
