Berbice Deeds Registry inflicts suffering on senior citizen
This 87- year- old woman had to wait for nearly an hour in the hot sun outside the Deeds 
Registry Building, downstairs of the New Amsterdam High Court, on Wednesday, before an employee came out to take her fingerprints for a transaction.
The woman’s niece had taken her to do a transaction but the woman was not attended to until after nearly an hour.
The woman fell asleep in the wheel chair in the hot sun, while her niece was inside, trying to get someone’s attention.
The senior citizen had to be brought in closer and closer to the shade as the shadows shrunk.
Eventually, the wheelchair reached a point where it could not move forward any further, since the steps were there. Employee after employee passed the woman in the hot sun and said nothing or did nothing.
It was nearly an hour later when someone finally came to her. The woman should have been given first priority, being both a senior citizen and disabled.
