'Slumdog' mothers clash over child-sale claims

The mother and step-mother of 'Slumdog Millionaire' child star Rubina Ali had a Mumbai street showdown over claims the little girl had been put up for sale, it emerged today.

The pair clashed in public after nine-year-old Rubina’s father Rafique Qureshi was accused of being willing to let her go for adoption in exchange for £200,000 (€225,000).
