INDIA-HEALTH-ALCOHOL-CRIME
To go with India-health-alcohol-crime,FOCUS by Sailendra Sil
Meena Biwi (C, in yellow scarf), the widow of Indian toxic liquor victim Sirajul Mollah, sits with her five daughters and other relatives in Padder Haat village, some 80kms south of Kolkata, on December 17, 2011. In the space of just a few short days, the close-knit community of Sangrampur in eastern India -- along with a number of smaller surrounding villages -- has been decimated by a case of mass poisoning from toxic, home-brewed alcohol. So far 170 people have died, almost exclusively men, most of whom were the sole bread-winners in families that were already struggling with life on the poverty line. AFP PHOTO/Dibyangshu SARKAR
