No, not just another attention grabbing headline to draw you into a thread about some self-serving promotion - somebody really did have a dump in the basement garage of our building.
As if we didn't have enough problems with the ongoing flooding every time there is heavy rainfall - which results in all sorts of unsanitary detritus coming up through the drains and leaving a stench & thick sludge after the water subsides - yesterday a neighbour went to get in her car and discovered a large steaming pile of human poo next to it. Whoever the culprit was, it seems it was premeditated, because they had used paper after the "event" too. We only have 12 apartments and we all know one another, so it seems pretty unlikely that it was a resident. But there are two automated gates to get through, and both close quicker than it takes the average person to complete such ablutions, so one has to wonder how someone got in and out without being detected. And more to the point - WHY?
I'm constantly shocked at how acceptable it seems to be for young men to pee in the street here, and also that parents regularly make their offspring relieve themselves in the gutter (in a country where children are "miracles" and any cafe or shop owner will happily allow use of their services) - but crapping in a private garage takes the biscuit.
I pity our cleaner, who dutifully cleaned up the mess. Whatever next?
