my friend has just come back from a 3 week holiday to find the battery on his porsche flat

its in the front but he cant open either the boot, or the bonnet. it feels like the lever has been locked in place by something

its not a snapped cable, cos if it was it would still lift just not engage anything

he cannot open the boot or bonnet, anyone have any idea why this could be

help needed soon, as hes stuck with no car at the minute

cheers guys
