The Haibowal police on Sunday registered a case against a factory owner on the charge of keeping a worker under wrongful confinement. The suspect was identified as Ashraf Ali of Sandhu Nagar, Haibowal.
The complainant, Mohd Asgar Ansari, told the police that he had been working at the factory of the suspect for the past over one year as an embroidery worker. Another worker, Mustafa, who was close to him, was also working in the factory. A few days ago, Mustafa left the factory and went to his native place in Bihar. Angry over the disappearance of Mustafa, their employer kept the victim under wrongful confinement at the factory. On Sunday, he managed to escape from the factory and lodged a police complaint in this regard.
