85 year woman charges their children of decieving of her property: HRPF to approach Mangaluru DC for justice

Mangalore, March 29, 2021: A 85 years old woman- Monthi D’Silva of Kallamundkur, Mangaluru has approached Udupi’s Human Rights Protection Foundation as she charged her children of decieving her of her property. Monthi has sought justice as her children not only neglected to take care of her at this ripe age, but also cunningly registered her 2.50 acres of land in their names.

Dr. Ravindranath Shanbhag, president, Human Rights Protection Foundation, Udupi told reporters in Udupi on Monday that this was done by Monthi’s children voilating the order of Assistant Commissioner, Mangaluru who instructed Monthi’s children to send her monthly remittance of Rs 2,000 each so that she can lead a peaceful life. The children have not followed the court order.

Monthi’s husband Baptist D’Silva who expired in 2006 had purchased 6.25 acres of land in Kallamundkur village with the hope to help his wife Monthi, daughters Irene Saldanha, Rita Rodrigues, Lucy Rebello, Jacinta Periera and son Vincent D’Silva.

In 2009, children of Monthi decided to share the land property among themselves, but in the process, the ownership of 2.50 acres of land that was supposed to go to Monthi was cunningly registered by the children as they having the joint ownership over that property. This was done by her children despite they getting their due share of land property.

Realising that she was decieved by her own children in her later stage of life, Monthi approached the Assistant Commissioner, Mangaluru in December, 2018. In an order passed in March, 2019, the AC court, Mangaluru told the children to remit Rs 2,000 every month to their mother’s bank account and to give 2.50 acres of land back to her. After the children failed to commit themselves to this order, Monthi again approached AC, Mangaluru after the six months of this order. AC, Mangaluru then wrote a letter to police department and the revenue department to execute the court’s order. Despite all these efforts, Monthi continues to be deprived of living a peaceful life. So HRPF has decided to approach DC, DK district soon, said Dr Shanbhag.
