Family Dumps Cancer-Stricken Elderly Woman on Road in Ayodhya, Incident Caught on CCTV
In a shocking and inhumane act, a family in Uttar Pradesh’s Ayodhya allegedly dumped a cancer-stricken elderly woman on the road at night, only to be discovered by locals the next morning in a critical condition. The incident has sent shockwaves across the country, with many expressing outrage and disbelief at the callous behavior of the family.
According to reports, the 65-year-old woman was taken to a hospital after being spotted by locals the next morning, but sadly, she passed away shortly after. The incident was captured on CCTV cameras, which have been widely shared on social media, sparking widespread outrage and condemnation.
The family, who have not been named, reportedly took the woman to a deserted area of the city and abandoned her on the road, leaving her to fend for herself. The CCTV footage shows the family members getting out of the car and walking away, leaving the woman lying on the ground.
The woman, who was reportedly suffering from cancer, was seen lying on the road, struggling to breathe and appear to be in a lot of pain. The footage also shows passersby stopping to help her, including one person who is seen trying to comfort her.
The incident was discovered by locals the next morning, who found the woman in a critical condition and immediately called the police and an ambulance. The woman was rushed to a nearby hospital, but despite receiving treatment, she succumbed to her injuries and passed away.
The police have launched an investigation into the incident and have arrested three members of the family, including the woman’s son, daughter-in-law, and granddaughter. An FIR has been registered against them under sections 302 (murder) and 34 (acts done by several persons in furtherance of common intention) of the Indian Penal Code.
The incident has sparked widespread outrage and condemnation, with many expressing shock and disbelief at the callous behavior of the family. “This is inhumane and barbaric,” said one Twitter user. “No human being deserves to be treated like this, especially an elderly woman who is already struggling with cancer.”
Another user wrote, “This is a shameful reflection of our society. We need to teach our children compassion and empathy, and not abandon our loved ones in times of need.”
The incident has also raised questions about the state of healthcare in India and the treatment of the elderly. “This incident highlights the need for better healthcare facilities and support systems for the elderly,” said Dr. Suresh Kumar, a geriatrician. “We need to ensure that our elderly citizens receive the care and respect they deserve, and not be abandoned or mistreated by their own families.”
The Ayodhya police have promised to take strict action against the family members involved in the incident and have appealed to the public to come forward with any information that can help in the investigation.
In the meantime, the incident has sparked a national debate about the treatment of the elderly and the importance of compassion and empathy in our society. It is a sad reminder that there are still many people who do not value the dignity and respect of their elderly loved ones, and that we need to do more to promote a culture of kindness and compassion in our society.
