Salo has been provoked by the news that a supermarket of a well-known chain insists on the lawsuit against an elderly woman who tried to get some food without paying, on Saturday afternoon.
The police officers who brought the 70-year-old asked them not to proceed with the proceedings, when they heard her story. The elderly woman is facing unbearable financial problems and was desperate.
The customers of the supermarket asked the people in charge not to go to the car and not to take legal action against her, but the person in charge of the store was adamant and said “that the orders he has are very strict in this case”. The products, according to the OPEN report, cost almost 40 euros.
The 70-year-old revealed to the police that she has no money at all and a mortgage loan with a very large arrangement, which she pays with her pension so that they do not take her home.
The police were moved by the story of the grandmother and since there were customers who offered to cover the amount, they wanted to close the case without proceeding with the legal proceedings.
However, the supermarket managers pressed the police to start the process of suing the woman. Neighbors of the elderly woman then contacted the managers of the supermarket and asked for the lawsuit to be withdrawn, but the answer they received was that “the policy of the company is not to withdraw such lawsuits”.
She tried to commit suicide out of shame
An elderly woman’s neighbor spoke to OPEN and revealed that the woman tried to commit suicide out of shame. “It simply came to our notice then. She took three blood pressure pills and we took her to the hospital. “The grandmother is trying to commit suicide because she does not raise the shame and she is afraid that this radio will not reach her sons’ ears”.
“I went to the supermarket and told them about the case. I found out where the grandmother lives and I went and found her. She is curled up in a blanket and does not speak. I lied to her that I was a lawyer and that I came to her rescue, I say that and I am ashamed. I told her I would do anything to get the supermarket to withdraw the lawsuit. “Unfortunately, I also do not have the money to pay her a lawyer.”
Regarding the grandmother’s family, the neighbor said she has two sons. “One is unemployed, the other has four children and gets 950 euros while he also has a big loan.” According to the neighbor, the woman receives a pension of 10,000 euros a year and has to pay a loan of 4,500 euros and another 4,000 because she has a health problem and is receiving treatment that comes from America so that she can walk.
“We have it with sedatives. He told me with tears that a month ago he sent a letter to a great football player and asked him for help because he had once worked in the team “.
