Guinea, Guinea

After her mother and brother died, the victim's father gave her away at age 8 to work as a domestic servant. She did housework for 18 hours a day, but she was never paid. She slept on the verandah and ate leftovers. Sometimes, she was denied food altogether. She was beaten frequently, particularly when she tried to rest. When his wife left the house, the male guardian raped her. She was not allowed to leave, but even if she was, she wouldn’t know where to go. She didn’t know if her father was still alive.
