A sad story has developed for a friend of my wife. She is a seamstress and a good one at that. Lives a humble life and supports her two children and her husband on what she makes slaving over her sewing machine every day.
Back in 2012 her husband agreed to be the guarantor to a nephew to the sum of RD400,000. Supposedly this lowlife nephew had no intentions of paying back the loan and is now living a comfortable life in the US.
Today the bailiffs turned up at the home of the guarantor with official papers from the local fiscal and has given notice that they will repossess everything of value belonging to the entire family. That means, car, sewing machines, tv, stove, i.e. anything that's not bolted down.
We're trying to do what we can to help, but obviously it's a very distressing situation for all involved. They have four days to sort this mess out.
