A 55 year old man was found hanged today at his home in Alicante in what is thought to be the fourth ‘eviction suicide’ in the past five days.
The body was found at a house in calle poeta Sansano in the Los Ángeles district of Alicante moments after officials arrived to serve an eviction order due to unpaid rent of €24,000.
The officials found a number of butane gas bottles stacked by the door and were concerned and alerted the police. The police officers entered the premises and discovered the body of the victim.
