Bombay High Court Upholds Eviction of Son Over Abuse Allegations Against Father
The Bombay High Court upheld the eviction of a 52-year-old man from his 83-year-old father's Mumbai home following allegations of repeated abuse and assault. The court cited CCTV footage and police reports showing the son physically assaulting his father, which endangered the senior citizen's right to live peacefully. The eviction was ordered under the Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act, 2007, after tribunals found the son's conduct unacceptable despite family property disputes.
