Gap pulls 'child labour' clothing

[nhboy]

"A 10-year-old boy was filmed making clothes for Gap shops in the US and Europe as part of an investigation by the UK's Observer newspaper.

The boy told the Observer he had been sold to a factory owner by his family.

Gap, which has made commitments not to use child labour, said that only one item - a girl's smock blouse - was involved.

The boy said he had been working for four months without pay and would not be allowed to leave the job until the fee his family had received was repaid."

Ok what I dont get is that the clothes were already made, why did they destroy them. They could have donated them to the poor, like the poor kids that made them.
