Faridabad: 13-year-old 'maid' jumps off 11th floor to escape slavery and torture

In order to escape slavery and torture, a 13-year-old girl on Wednesday attempted suicide by jumping off the 11th floor of a building in Faridabad.

A minor girl took an extreme step after suffering for two years. However, she survived as she was caught in a bird net on the 10th floor balcony, reported news18.

The girl, who hails from Bihar, was rescued after being stuck for several hours. The victim also has burn and injury marks all over her body.

According to report, the victim was starved for sometime and was never allowed to step out of the house.

"We would often hear cries. But the woman, who told us that she studies at a private university, would tell us to mind our own business," said a neighbour at Kanishka Towers.

The victim has been asked to be kept at a child protection centre, and an FIR will be filed soon.
