The Boy Who Was Tied Up For Life
Sky Real Lives, Tuesday 18 June 22.00
Sujit Kumar spent the first few years of his life locked inside a chicken coop at his family's home in Fiji. But this was only the beginning of his nightmare upbringing. After being ‘rescued' by social services, he was placed in an old people's home where he spent the next 22 years anchored to a wall, deemed too feral and unmanageable for staff to care for. This moving documentary tells the story of Sujit's ordeal and how Elizabeth Clayton, an Australian businesswoman, found him and decided to try to give him something approaching a normal life. Elizabeth's quest was to bring Sujit from a mute, animal-like existence into regular society, restoring his dignity and finally setting him free.
