Turned away by daughter, 91-yr-old woman dies in cab

Kolkata:  14.01.2019

An ailing nonagenarian died in a cab after she was refused entry to her daughter’s house at Mudiali. Though the driver took her to a hospital, she was declared “brought dead”.

The deceased, Shobharani Mazumdar, 91, used to stay with her son and daughter in turns. After living with her son for a few weeks, she decided to go to her daughter’s house in Mudiali on Saturday morning. The son hailed her an app cab and asked her grandson to accompany her to Mudiali.

However, Mazumdar’s daughter refused to let her in as she was getting ready to go out to a social gathering.

As the woman called her brother to sort out the issue, Mazumdar started feeling uneasy. Despite the situation worsening, Mazumdar’s daughter asked the app-cab driver to take the elderly woman back to her brother’s place. In the confusion, the grandson left the spot.

Sources said the elderly woman seemed unwell as the driver started for Kudghat. Seeing her condition, he called up her son and informed him.

As Mazumdar’s conditioned worsened, he turned the car towards M R Bangur Hospital to admit her there. The woman was declared “brought dead” by the hospital. TNN
