Widow Case No SWF25 0629 Afzala Bibi is a widow upon whom life has placed a very heavy trial. The responsibility of five young children and severe financial hardship forced her to take her teenage orphan son out of school who is just 14-years-old and send him to work at a welding shop instead of studying from books. After the death of her husband, the family has fallen into extreme poverty; although they own a house, even two meals a day are difficult to manage.
