Child slavery

Summary: Reporter Rageh Omaar travels to Ghana, Saudi Arabia, India, Cambodia and Peru to investigate child slavery practices and the circumstances that lead to slavery in these countries. Some are sold to child traffickers by desperately poor parents, and others are bonded labour paying off family debts. Many are simply economic slaves, forced to work long hours in dangerous conditions just to supplement a pitiful family income in order to survive. Others are sex slaves, imprisoned and abused constantly. Profiles children who are or who have been in slavery: Mawulehawe, Ali, cousins Rahul and Amit, Dalyn, and Freddy.
