Bit Of A Complicated Matter
45 Answers
Hoping someone can help with this and I will keep it as brief as I can.
I live in a complex of 14 bungalows for the over 55's.The bungalows are all shared ownership and we pay rent to a management company who act on behalf of the landlord.
For quite sometime now, one of the residents Mr L has had problems with his next door neighbour.
It's not a noise nuisance problem but a problem that consists of threats, really bad language, putting a hose over the fence and soaking this gentleman who is in his late 70's and both he and his wife are not in good health.
They do not have any internet access and he is not very good at expressing himself on the phone, but he contacted the landlord and was told he must speak to the management company. He spoke to them and was told there is nothing they can do about it.
His brother has reported it to the police as the threats are getting very nasty, and he was given a crime number but they have not done anything about it.
Does anyone have any idea what he can do, as he and his very sick wife are suffering with it all.TIA.

A former neighbour of mine was subject to nuisance and their housing association fitted fake cameras which helped.
I appreciate that the gentleman himself might not be able to fit them but worth another ask I'd think. It's the squeaky gate that gets oiled.
And just to mention that 'real' camera security systems are relatively inexpensive these days and could collect evidence.
