Less than a week after mid-day’s cover-page story about two contractor brothers exploiting 18 tribal families in Bhiwandi, Ganeshpuri police filed an FIR on Tuesday. Chandrakant Patil and Rajaram Patil have been booked under Sections of Bonded Labour System (Abolition) Act and SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act. However, no arrests have been made yet.
The Patil brothers had allegedly enslaved the tribal families at Pilanje Budruk Chinchpada village and forced them to work in their brick kiln and stone quarry.
