In her arms was a two-year-old boy she says she conceived as a result of the rape. She was raped by an Indian migrant who she was working with. She said the man threatened her with a knife. .
Ngolo said her legs were chained all the time she was in prison. She gave birth to her son in prison after a seven-month court battle. .
