VOICED : Begging becomes business in Pakistan

The video discusses the plight of young beggars in Pakistan, many of whom are driven to the streets due to poverty and drug addiction. Despite legal penalties, begging remains widespread, with police often bribed to ignore it. Charities and government shelters struggle to support these children, many of whom have faced abuse and hardship. Efforts to trace families often fail, leaving children vulnerable to criminal gangs. With nearly half of Pakistan's population in poverty, finding a solution is challenging.
