Old Lady Allegedly Locked at Home So Her Relatives Can Sell the House

 

We’ve all heard of horrible stories of relatives disowning their ageing parents or grandparents and leaving them to fend for themselves. But sometimes, relatives can lock their ageing parents or grandparents inside the house.

This case of a grandmother allegedly being locked at home and left to die so her relatives can sell the house is going viral on Facebook. According to Ayesha Liezel Danan, who first posted the story:

 

In-upload ko itong picture na to para kahit papano makatulong kay lola. Hndi ko siya kilala pero nakaka awa ang kwento nya, pansinin nyo nka kandado yung pinto, araw araw siyang ganyan humihingi ng tulong para makakain.

(I uploaded this picture so I can somehow help this old lady. I don’t know her but I feel sad for her. Notice how the gate is locked. Every day she begs for help so she can eat.)

 

Ayesha did some research and found out stuff about the old lady:

 

May isa siyang anak, patay na, yung apo niya nasa ibang bansa. Ang kasama niya sa bahay ay yung pamangkin. Ang bahay na yan ay luma na 100square meters. Sabi ng mga kapitbahay ay hinihintay nlang mamatay ang matanda, talagang pinababayaan na nila, dahil ibebenta yung bahay at lupa nito.

(She has one child who passed away, and her granchild is in another country. The only person she’s with is her niece/nepher. The house is old, and is only 100 square meters. According to neighbors they’re just waiting for her to die so they can sell the house and lot.)

 

According to Ayesha, the house is located in Balic-Balic in Sampaloc, Manila.
