The Commission had received information about how the said lady was being ill-treated by her own daughter and had been forced to lie outside her own house in the cold. She was denied food and any care for the past several months. The Commission has learned that the woman's daughter who allegedly tortured her is an officer in the Delhi Police.""On receiving the complaint, the Commission rescued the lady from the road outside her house on the evening of December 30, 2019. The lady was found to be in a very serious condition and was lying in her own refuse for several days. She was terribly emaciated and was suffering from severe injuries and bed sores.
