A 35-year-old man, suffering from hearing and speech impairment, was rescued from a hotel in Maharashtra's Osmanabad district, where he was kept chained to a pillar for three months, police said on Thursday.


The police carried out the rescue at a hotel in Naldurg town of the district on Tuesday night and have arrested the owner of the establishment, an official said.


"We received information that a deaf and mute man had been kept chained to a wooden pillar inside a room at a hotel for the last three months. We laid a trap and rescued the man," assistant police inspector Jagdish Raut said.
