Full house sees Indian man lose daughter

A man in India has lost his 18-year-old daughter after putting her forward as collateral in a game of cards

The man, identified only as “Ismail” from a village in West Bengal was having a bad night, and thought that gambling his daughter might break his losing streak…but he was wrong.

“A desperate Ismail said he would continue playing and staked his daughter” local media quoted a witness as saying. “As luck would have it, [his opponent] beat him again and walked away with the protesting girl.”

Indian police have launched an investigation after the winnings were claimed by the victor… and the girl disappeared from her village.
