A
teacher at a British university and her husband were arrested on
suspicion of keeping a Polish citizen in slavery, the Daily Mail
reports.
According to police, a 56-year-old woman and her 54-year-old husband were kept in slavery in their barn for four years, a Pole who was hired to carry out construction work in his garden.
The man was forced to sleep on a plastic deck chair in an unheated barn, where there was no toilet, while he worked only for food.
The spouses themselves are quite wealthy, their five-bedroom home in Hampshire is estimated at £ 1.2m.
The police paid attention to the couple only after the victim had sought medical assistance and told about the conditions of his detention.
On October 4, it was reported that police in the British county of Cumbria found a 58-year-old man held in slavery for at least 40 years.
