Five children rescued

Kochi: The Railway Protection Force (RPF) on Wednesday rescued five children from Bihar and handed them over to Childline. Four of them, about 10 years old, had run away from a zari work mill in Hyderabad because of the hard labour there. In another case in the morning, the RPF caught a 13-year-old boy, who was found begging in the train. He was produced before the Chief Judicial Magistrate, who handed him over to Snehanilayam, Palluruthy.
