Synopsis

Apart from his clothes, the only possessions Abdul Mkith brought to London, was a locket and a five taka note. When he was ten years old, Abdul fled persecution in his own country, and was taken to stay with so-called family friends, already UK citizens, to where he believed he would be safe. But he was sold into slavery by the people he trusted. Abdul was rescued during a drug raid in a small Scottish village. He now claims that intervention saved his life, and his wonderful foster parents made him whole again. Then began the search for his real parents who he believed were dead. This is the true story of what is happening in the western world today.

He still struggles with issues from his past, and found that telling his story to the world has been therapeutic. For the first time, Abdul recently went camping in the mountains and loved it.
