I was trafficked to the UK as a child and forced to work as domestic servant- UK Olympic gold medalist Mo Farah

 Olympic star, Sir Mo Farah was brought to the UK illicitly as a kid and compelled to work as a domestic servant, he has uncovered.

As per the marathon star, his genuine name is Hussein Abdi Kahin and he was given the name Mohamed Farah by the individuals who flew him over from Djibouti.

He was flown over from the African nation aged nine by a lady he had never met, and afterward made to cater for another family's kids, he says.

"For years I just kept blocking it out," the Team GB athlete says.

"But you can only block it out for so long."

Beforehand he said he came to the UK from Somalia with his folks as an exile.

In any case, in a narrative by the BBC and Red Bull Studios broadcasting on Wednesday, July 13, he said his folks have never been to the UK while his mom and two siblings live on their family ranch in the breakaway territory of Somaliland.

He said his dad, Abdi, was killed by stray gunfire when Mo was four years of age, in civil brutality in Somalia.

He says he was around eight or nine years of age when he was taken from home to remain with family in Djibouti. He was then flown over to the UK by a lady he had never met and wasn't related with.

She let him know he was being taken to Europe to live with family members there - something he says he was "excited" about. "I'd never been on a plane," he says.

 He says she had counterfeit travel documents with her that showed his photograph close to the name "Mohamed Farah".

At the point when they showed up in the UK, the lady took him to her flat in Hounslow, west London, and took a piece of paper off him that had his family members' contact details on, as per the narrative.

"Right in front of me, she ripped it up and put it in the bin. At that moment, I knew I was in trouble," he says.

 

 

 "if I wanted food in my mouth". He says the woman told him: "If you ever want to see your family again, don't say anything."

"Often I would just lock myself in the bathroom and cry," he says.

For the initial few years the family didn't permit him to go to class, however when he was around 12 he signed up in Year 7 at Feltham Community College.

School staff were informed Sir Mo was a refugee from Somalia.

His previous teacher Sarah Rennie says he came to school "unkempt and uncared for", that he talked next to no English and was an "emotionally and culturally alienated" youngster.

She says individuals who said they were his folks didn't attend any guardians' nights.

Sir Mo says sport was a help for him as "the only thing I could do to get away from this [living situation] was to get out and run".

He informed his PE educator Mr Watkinson regarding his actual identity, his background, and the family he was being compelled to work for, who reached social services and aided Sir Mo to be encouraged by another Somali family.

"I still missed my real family, but from that moment everything got better," Sir Mo says.

"I felt like a lot of stuff was lifted off my shoulders, and I felt like me. That's when Mo came out - the real Mo."

Mo made a name for himself as an athlete, very early on at 14 he was invited to vie for English schools at a race in Latvia - yet he had no travel documents.

His PE teacher Watkinson assisted him with applying for British citizenship under the name Mohamed Farah, which was conceded in July 2000.

In the narrative, advodate Alan Briddock tells Sir Mo his ethnicity was actually "obtained by fraud or misrepresentations".

"I had no idea there was so many people who are going through exactly the same thing that I did. It just shows how lucky I was," he says.

"What really saved me, what made me different, was that I could run."
