According to the Telegraph and other local media, a woman who worked at a supermarket in Andalusia, Spain, was caught pretending to be a 'fake' language-impaired patient.
She was attacked by a client while working back in 2003 and diagnosed with 'Post Traumatic Stress Disorder' and language loss.
Since then, social insurance authorities and insurance companies have paid pensions due to disability for 16 years.
Recently, the insurance company found suspicious parts while investigating insurance payment cases and medical records, and started further investigation.
Because none of the specialists she visited (an ophthalmologist, an orthopedic surgeon, a dermatologist) had ever diagnosed that she could not speak.
The insurance company, which considered suspicious, hired a private detective and requested the case.
A few weeks later, a private detective reported "The woman speaks normally on the street, chats with other mothers outside the school gates, uses her cell phone without any problems, and attends Zumba lessons."
In addition, she even explained her direction to the detective who was asking for directions without any problems. It was recorded with the recorder carried by the detective.
Based on this, the insurance company filed a lawsuit claiming that it is no longer responsible for providing disability benefits.
Recently, an Andalusian court ruled that the evidence submitted by the insurance company was valid and valid, and that she was no longer obligated to pay disability benefits.
It was also dismissed on the grounds that the court's dismissal of a woman's appeal to dismiss the registration of a detective constitutes a"clear infringement on her constitutional rights".
As a result, the insurance company plans to file a lawsuit against her to recover the insurance payments paid for 16 years.
