Man found dead one hour before he was due to be evicted

The body of a 53 year old man was found in the courtyard of his home in Granada on Thursday morning, just one hour before he was due to be evicted.

The police were alerted at around 09:00 on Thursday morning to the presence of a body at the home in calle Arzobispo Guerrero in the La Chana district of Granada. The man had allegedly committed suicide by hanging himself.

The deceased had signed a €240,000 mortgage agreement in 2007 for business premises and a home but was being evicted due to debts and non-payment.

According to the Council, the deceased had neither asked for or been offered any assistance by the Social Services department.
