インド、マハーラーシュトラ。9年前に行方不明になった女の子、現在16歳が無事に発見された。そりゃあ珍しい。
BBC Maharashtra: Missing girl found after nine years recounts ordeal 20 Aug 2022 By Dipali Jagtap
ひとりになった時に「アイスクリームを買ってあげるよ」と釣られてしまった―という。犯人は夫婦者で、当時子供がいなかった。最初は学校にも通わせてもらえていたが、夫婦に実の子供が生まれると、この子の方は家事奉公人として使役され、虐待される様になったという。
「After nine long years, 16-year-old Pooja Gaud is finally able to rest her head on her mother's lap.
Pooja went missing on 22 January 2013 when she was seven years old. She says she was picked up from outside her school in Mumbai city in the western Indian state of Maharashtra by a couple who lured her with an ice-cream.
On 4 August, she was found in what is being described as "a miraculous escape". Her mother, Poonam Gaud, says she is over the moon with happiness.
"I had given up hope of ever finding my daughter. But the gods have been kind to me," she says.
Police have alleged that the child was kidnapped by Harry D'Souza and his wife, Soni D'Souza, because the couple didn't have a child of their own.」
「She says she was allowed to attend school for a short while, but after the couple had a child of their own, she was pulled out of school and they all shifted to Mumbai.
Pooja says the abuse got worse after the baby was born.」
あるときこの夫婦が寝静まった時に携帯電話に触り、自分の名を検索してみたところ―行方不明者として探されていた、と気付く。そればかりではどうしようもなく、逃げるにも逃げられなかったところ、ベビーシッターとして働いていた先の家政婦さんが協力してくれて、無事に実家と連絡が付く運びに。
「But it took her seven months before she could muster enough courage to discuss it with Pramila Devendra, 35, a domestic helper who worked at the same house where Pooja worked as a babysitter.」
この種の誘拐は…まだまだ事例はあるのだろう。起きないように、解決するようにとばかりである。
