CCTV captures 52-year-old son ‘assaulting’ father, Bombay High Court backs his eviction
The Bombay High Court has approved the removal of a 52-year-old man from his elderly father's residence in Mumbai due to allegations of repeated abuse and assault. Justice N J Jamadar ruled that the son's behavior had infringed upon the senior citizen's right to live a peaceful and dignified life. The court relied on CCTV footage and medical records to support the allegations.
The son, who denies the accusations, claimed that his father was not the sole owner of the property and that he financially supported his parents. However, the court found that the son's abusive and aggressive behavior seriously jeopardized the senior citizen's well-being. The court rejected the argument that property disputes could justify the son's abusive conduct.
The eviction order had already been implemented, restoring peace and normalcy to the elderly man's life.
