[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Bong-ju] In Mexico, a grandmother who came to get vaccinated against the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) secretly handed a note to a nurse to report abuse.


Mexico City authorities announced on the 4th (local time) that they arrested the daughter and son-in-law of the 85-year-old grandmother after receiving an abuse report at a vaccination center set up in a school in the Iztapalapa area.


The note stated that the daughter and son-in-law had been confining her for a year and not allowing her to go outside, asking to be let out. According to city authorities, the elderly woman also claimed that she was being humiliated in a miserable environment.


The nurse who received the note immediately handed it over to the police guarding the vaccination center, and the police arrested the 39-year-old daughter and 59-year-old son-in-law identified by the elderly woman on the spot and are investigating the abuse allegations.



The elderly woman has reportedly been moved to a safe place.
