A 75-year-old woman was found abandoned near a bus stand in Patparganj area in East Delhi on Sunday morning. The woman, suffering from breathing problems and a fractured arm, lay writhing in pain on the roadside till passersby called the police.
Ram Pyaari, the victim, said that she was often beaten up and denied food by the elder of her two sons, Govind and his wife Sonia. They are living in Trilokpuri.
Her younger son Sonu, who is unemployed, brought the elderly woman to the Patparganj bus stand and left her there.
“Sonu told me that he is going to fetch money from Uttam Nagar. With that money he would send me to Rajasthan where my daughter lives. I have been lying here since morning as he has not returned,” said Ram Pyaari, crying hysterically.
