Brit woman, 90, ‘starved to death’ after her carer son, 63, died at their home in Costa del Sol

AN ELDERLY British woman has been found “starved to death” after her carer son died at their Costa del Sol home.

The 90-year-old mum and her 63-year-old son were discovered by cops on a welfare check.

Police had to force their way into the home in Alhaurin el Grande, around 30 minutes away from the Costa del Sol resort of Fuengirola.

Cops believe mum starved to death after her carer son died of natural causes.

The alarm was raised by town hall workers days after an ambulance was called to their home to help the 90-year-old.

These Brits were also known to local social services, and her son is understood to have been her registered carer.

It is not clear whether the 63-year-old also had health issues.

Civil Guard officers who investigated the case believe the pair died from natural causes.

Cops say there is no suggestion they were victims of a crime.

Follow-up tests are being conducted following their post-mortems.

This comes after two other British pensioners in their 80s were found dead at their Costa Blanca home last Thursday.

The bodies of a man, 82, and woman, 74, described as friends by police, were discovered by firefighters.

They were found at their home near the small town of San Fulgencio, around a 45-minute drive south of Alicante.

Cops revealed the pair both suffered chronic illnesses and a post-mortem revealed they died from natural causes.

The alarm was raised by staff at the local councils social services department.

A spokesperson for the Civil Guard in Alicante announced last night that they were notified around 3:30 pm through the emergency 112 service regarding the finding of two lifeless bodies of individuals approximately 80 years old.

“Firefighters were at the scene along with local police from San Fulgencio when we arrived.

“The bodies have been transferred to Alicante’s Institute of Legal Medicine for the corresponding autopsy and full identification of both.”
