Sheriff officers booted James Montague, 58, from his Motherwell home in February while he was in hospital for a blood transfusion due to stage six kidney failure.
The family of a blind man from Motherwell have criticised the council for evicting him from his family home before his death.
James' brother Patrick has criticised North Lanarkshire Council for the move and said his final months were spend in misery in an upstairs flat that didn't meet his needs. “North Lanarkshire Council have been callous and inhumane and they sneaked in to evict Jimmy when he was in hospital, sending round Sheriff Officers and changing out the locks.“But the flat that he had to move into was up a flight of stairs and it was away from family members on the same street who gave him great support.
“Currently, his physical health is deteriorating. It is practically impossible for him to be moved due to him being bed bound.” However, he was evicted. Sheriff officers possesed the home on the day James was rushed to hospital for a blood transfusion.
