17. We received a report that on 7 February 2017 that the Defendant approached
the leaseholder of 117 Burncroft Avenue and his plumber outside the block as
they were attempting to resolve the problem causing low water pressure in the
flat. The Defendant said to the leaseholder that there were problems between him
and his tenants but did not give any specific details. The leaseholder explained to
the Defendant that his tenants were experiencing low water pressure in the flat
and the Defendant said to him ‘you will ot solve the problem as I am restricting
n
their water supply’. The leaseholder later knocked on the Defendant door and
asked whether he would increase the water pressure and the Defendant stated '!
cannot do anything at the moment, I will sort it out later’.
18. On 24 February 2017 Sarah Fletcher (Neighbourhood Officer) and Steve Stirk
th
(Maintenance Surveyor) attended the Defendant property at fiat 109 Burncroft
Avenue to inspect the property following reports of low water pressure from flats
113 and 117 Burncroft Avenue. While inside the Defendant flat, they observed
that the Defendant had installed an iron security gate inside his front door. It also
appeared to them that the wall between the Defendant kitchen and living room
seemed to have been removed thereby creating an open plan effect. Much of the
property was taken up with industrial type printers, boxes and folders and there
were dog faeces in the Defendant’s back garden.
19. On 17 March 2017 Lemmy Nwabuisi, ASB Coordinator visited 109 Burncroft
th
Avenue to post a letter through the Defendant door and as he got into his car to
drive off after posting the letter, the Defendant ran after him shouting and
screaming abuse. The letter requested that the Defendant attend the Council
office to discuss the nuisance reports being received from his neighbours. By the
time he returned to the office, the Defendant had telephoned him several times.
Lemmy Nwabuisi telephoned the Defendant back and the Defendant asked
whether he was the person that posted a letter through his letterbox and Lemmy
Nwabuisi said yes. The Defendant asked why he did not stop when he ran after
him and Lemmy Nwabuisi stated that he had another visit and did not have the
time to stop and talk to him. The Defendant stated that he will not attend the
meeting at the Civic Centre or any of the council offices as he is unable to leave
his flat and that the meeting should take place in his flat. Mr Nwabuisi offered to
have the meeting at a neutral venue and suggested the local library or at his
mother's house but the Defendant refused saying that he have done nothing
wrong and accused Lemmy Nwabuisi of taking sides with his neighbours.
20. On 5 th May 2017, it is alleged that the Defendant threatened one of his
neighbours by saying that he will ruin his life and that the Defendant was going to
the police to present evidence about his illegal activities.
