A 85-year-old mate was found to be staying in one-room flat. it is found that his mattress was soiled with human excreta and urine. The premise is infested with cockroaches, fleas and rats. It is known to the neighbours that the elderly man has the habit of feeding stray dogs and cats in the neighbourhood.

The elderly man was referred to a nursing home and presented with high fever, rash and general weakness.
