New Delhi: While one and a half year old Ishaan may have been rescued, the incident has once again highlighted the need for servant verification. 
 
Police say most families hesitate to take their servants for a simple verification process and this makes it very difficult for the Police to track a domestic help who may have been involved in a crime. 
 
Ishaan’s mother Gayatri Singh is lucky to have her 18 month old son back, after three days of rigorous investigations led the police to five accused that are now behind bars. 
 
Ishaan's family had committed a common mistake of not getting their servant verified. 
 
In most of the crimes in Delhi either a driver is involved or a servant or a worker, mostly someone from within the house who has some sort of information. And this is some thing that can be backed by statistics. 
 
Since 2009, nine cases of murder and 481 cases of theft were reported in which servants were involved. 
 
On December 27, 2004 a 65 year man, his daughter and son in law were allegedly killed by their servant. 
 
On March 2, 2007 a 12 year old boy and his grandmother were murdered by their 21 year old servant Mithilesh. 
 
On May 26, 2008 an elderly couple was allegedly killed by their domestic help who was later arrested. 
 
But despite these telling numbers verification of domestic helps is some thing that is rarely done. Despite the fact that its easily accessibly, even online. Last year just about thirty thousand domestic helps were verified and this year just six thousand so far. The flipside is, some times even as the local police may do their job, its the police at the district or the state level who often do not carry out their part of the job. 
 
Police officials say that despite the growing number of crimes involving domestic helps Delhi residents are hesitant to get their servants verified. Most fear that the servants would run away at the thought of having to deal with the police. But all that it takes to ensure your family's safety is filling up a simple form like this one which has a photograph and other details such as local and permanent addresses and also the address of the previous employer.
