Spanish police have rescued two elderly people who were allegedly locked up, drugged, and fed through tubes at a private nursing home in Spain, according to the country’s Guardia Civil.
Authorities said they discovered a disabled Dutch woman, identified as Elisabeth, and a German man, Silvestre, in “a terrible state” at the nursing home located at Chiclana de la Frontera, near Cadiz in southern Spain. According to the Telegraph, they were found immobile on beds in small rooms and appeared to be drugged with tranquilizers. The victims were also attached to nasogastric tubes, apparently fed a diet of sandwiches, and appeared to be suffering from malnutrition.
