how to get rid of conlady and conman?

[mrswkn]

My dad is 71 yrs old and he met a conlady and conman around year 2000 to 2001. I am not sure of the exact year as he has been secretive about it until 2006. My dad used to stay in his own house with my brother. Due to dad's love for the conlady, he kicked my brother out and my dad is staying alone since 2006.

The conlady befriended my dad and has been systematically getting money from him for years. She spend time with him during the day for a few years when he was giving her around $2.5 to $5k a month. She is still receiving money from him by bank cash deposit regularly now but the amount has reduced to just a few hundred a month as we (the children) are no longer giving our dad as much as before.

I say that she is a conlady because she spins a tale of getting major inheritance from a old man she met in Singapore and she requires legal fees, money to bribe judge, etc. You would laugh if you hear the stories but to my dad, it is real and dad believes her 100%. He is a strong-willed stubborn man so reasoning with him is not a solution because he thinks that he is the smartest man on Earth. I have approach the Malaysian police by trying to lodge a police report but only got ridiculed. The police officer said that it is the children's fault for giving our old man so much money. Furthermore my dad gives away the money willingly, so there is no case against the conlady.

My dad has been going around begging/borrowing for money from friends, relatives and anyone/anywhere he could. He is also going on food strike to make us children feel sad. he eats only skin of bread he purchased in bulk from the market. I placed money in a restaurant near his home for him to order any food he likes but he will not go there even once.

i'll appreciate any advice or suggestion. My father is being naughty but he is my dad and i love him and would not like to see the old man suffer.  He is suffering from not eating proper/nutritious food and not having money to spend as he remit every penny to the conlady.

why not? i am not a singaporean and i have an issue. ppl in this forum are mostly adults possibly having more mature views compared to other forums catered for teenagers. cant really post in forums for moms or computer gadgets.

do you have a better suggestion on a more appropriate place for me to get opinion on this issue?
