The district governor took care of the 85-year-old man whose electricity and water were cut off.

In the Sincan district of Ankara, the landlord, who wants to evict 85-year-old prostate patient Hicabi Altuntaş from the house he has lived alone in for 8 years, first cut off the electricity and water of the house. It was learned that the landlord, who took Altuntaş to court, received a court decision to evict him on the 15th of the month.

"I AM SICK ALREADY"

Hicabi Altuntaş, who stated that he is sick, said, "My landlord is constantly trying to evict me. I live here, as you can see. They cut off the electricity. I have no firewood, no coal; I sometimes wet the bed, sometimes I wet my pants because of my prostate. I am already sick. I can't go anywhere, I don't know who to go to or what to do; they are moving me wherever they want. I want comfort; they should help me, I have no firewood, no coal. The landlord never comes; a person should come and talk," he expressed.

"NOT EVEN HALF AN HOUR CAN BE SPENT HERE"

A neighbor who helps 85-year-old Hicabi Altuntaş said, "The landlord wants to evict him. We personally informed the local authority and spoke with them. The landlord has taken him to court, and the court says you will be evicted on the 15th. Where will this man go in this winter season?" Another neighbor commented, "Take the man to a nursing home or a shelter. Not even half an hour can be spent here; it’s not suitable for sitting. The man is already old and cannot take care of himself," he said.

THE DISTRICT GOVERNORATE INTERVENED

The situation was reported to the Sincan District Governorate and police teams. The Sincan District Governorate and police teams placed the elderly man in the Governor's Guesthouse for one day.
