Hello everyone, I am reaching out to you in a moment of great despair. 15 years ago, we rented out our small shop to a group of people. Since the rent was very low, we agreed to take daily essentials and groceries from the shop instead of cash payments.

For over 15 years, we believed the rent was being offset against the goods we took. However, the tenants are now claiming that we owe them a staggering 5 million LKR (50 Lakhs). They have overcharged us for goods and never deducted the rent as promised. We didn't pursue legal action earlier out of trust, but now we are trapped.

They are demanding this massive amount to vacate our own shop. Our only dream is to settle this debt, reclaim our shop, and start our own small business to live a dignified life. Any small contribution you make will help save my family from this crushing debt and give us a fresh start. Please help us reclaim our future."
