GURGAON: Naresh Kumar (33) faces the hardest check each and every time he has to speak with his two daughters and son, about the time he spent in prison.

He attended his last mother's rites under custody. Then, on March 18, 2017, he was amongst 117 employees who have been acquitted by means of the Gurgaon district court.
A 12 months after his unencumber, despite the fact that, neither Kumar nor his 116 fellow acquitted employees have a job.
In all, 148 employees went to trial, of whom 13 have been sentenced for lifestyles imprisonment, 117 have been acquitted and 18 have been convicted handiest of grievous harm and trespass. Of them, 139 have been out on bail, while 9 have been in jail until last March.
