A son born in jail bails his mother out after 19 years.

A woman in India has been bailed out of jail by her son after he was born behind bars 19 years ago.

The mother was convicted of murder, though she claims to be innocent.

She was granted bail for the equivalent of 180 dollars, but no one came forward to pay until her son became old enough to get a job and save money to free his mother.

The father abandoned his wife and child when she went to jail, but now they are trying to contact him in order to get their rightful property shares.

An estimated 300 thousand inmates are locked up in India, and about 70 percent of them have yet to go to trial for their alleged crimes.

Many prisoners wait in custody for years before they are given trial by a judge.

India’s legal system, specifically as it pertains to women’s rights, has recently been criticized.

There have been many rape cases where the aggressor is let off the hook by the judge for a variety of reasons.
