A man in Petaling Jaya was believed to have starved to death after his landlord allegedly accidentally locked him inside his apartment unit. Full story here:
last month. It’s even more horrifying if you were stuck in your own home and there was no way to call for help.
Unfortunately, that’s what happened to this man who was found dead in his apartment unit in Petaling Jaya recently. According to local reports last Friday , the discovery of his death happened last month when neighbours found his lifeless body after his disappearance.It was reported that the man was working as an e-hailing driver and was unable to pay rent for 3 months.
It is still currently unknown if the tenant’s phone had any reception from his unit to call the emergency helpline, which is free. The deceased’s family was distraught when they were contacted regarding the death of their loved one. After learning what happened, the family planned to sue the landlord for negligence.
The landlord told reporters that she assumed the e-hailing driver had moved away and only realised something was wrong after receiving a call from the authorities. She also claimed that she tried calling the deceased multiple times but no one answered.Apart from that, the landlord rebutted the family’s suspicions that the deceased starved to death, claiming that he could’ve used the balcony in his unit’s living room or kitchen to escape his predicament.
After the story broke out, many offered their condolences while some condemned the landlord for locking the apartment unit instead filing a report against the tenant as it could’ve saved him from death. At the time of writing, there have been no updates regarding this case.
