So the newspaper advert should have read, such was the stupidity of one father. It happened in India, where a father put his daughter up as a wager in a card game and lost! The winner dragged off the girl, despite her vehement protests and whilst family onlookers tried in vain to stop him.
Gambling is illegal in India, so shouldn’t this make the verbal contract, “wager”, null and void? We might need a few lawyers to sort this one out.
Luckily, neighbors in her village heard the story and rescued her from a tortuous situation. Level heads have prevailed.
Who would have thought children were bargaining chips. Just plain stupid.
Such a ridiculous story. The nerve of these people. The only way this story could of been any worse is if it happen here in the states. We have enough bad plablicity already. Unreal!
Well the only thing i disagree with is get the lawyers invoved.shakspeer was right kill the lawyers.Its time here and abroud to get the lawyers out of the way and let the peoples justice prevail what ever it may be
P.S.the father should loose all rights to the child
I think she is living with relatives now. Poor thing!
