Council House Crackdown S02E05 | 27th May 2016

I'm Michele, my parents grew up on

council

estates and as a family we understand the different aspects that social housing can have on people's lives, but across the UK there is a chronic shortage of

council

and Housing Association housing . I know many friends and many people who literally have nowhere to live, which aggravates the crisis; some tenants are abusing the system by holding onto properties they no longer need or worse, illegally subletting them and amassing a small fortune by subletting socializing is wrong, it's wrong, it's illegal and it's wrong, so every day we will be with the housing investigators while They crack down on those dishonest tenants, reclaim properties and give them to families who really need them.

This is the offensive against municipal

house

s. Our expert property reporter Luke Deunan also grew up on a council estate and for the last six months has been working alongside dedicated housing investigators who will stop at nothing to track down every single tenant abusing the system. Today, a scammer who claimed she and her children were homeless to get this council

house

is sentenced after being caught renting. her two private houses, she has this property that she rents, it costs her £400 a month and that's kind of a shot in her pocket, the married man who said he was single just so he could keep his council flat and then his teenage son and his friends.

In reality, they have rented properties to young people. They dress in nothing but the doghouse. I'm the east London prisoner who's been minting her and subletting her social housing property while she's still behind bars. That's the bank account statement. which shows that the money was going to that account, there are 26.4 million households in the UK and almost a fifth of them are social housing, but there are more than one and a half million households on housing waiting lists, So it is vital that social housing reaches the right people, the vast majority of those living in social housing are responsible, law-abiding people, but there are some who use their Housing Association Council property as a passport to earn money.

Our first case involves a fraudster who claimed she and her children were homeless so she could get a council house in Solihull while also owning not one but two private properties in neighboring Birmingham. Luke meeting Solihull council's chief auditor, Shawn Turley, who is the lead investigator on the case. Solihull council has a fraud hotline and that's how they first found out about it. Dawn Hit is the perpetrator of Shawn's biggest leasing fraud case. It is boldness on her part in 2010. Miss Hippias contacted Solihull council saying that she and her two children are about to become homeless.

She filled out the homeless application form with us. She applied for her with two. small children, so we assigned him a property. I guess she will definitely go to the top, the council acted quickly and put her up here in a substantial three bedroom house on the outskirts of Solihull, but in 2014 Shaun's team received an anonymous call that we had. a very good tip-off from a member of the public, her phone on our hotline provided us with a number of details indicating that our tenant Dawn hip kiss actually owned a property in Birmingham that she was renting.

Shawn immediately began an investigation to be eligible for council accommodation being a condition that he cannot own another property, so Shawn contacted a colleague at Birmingham City Council. We approached Birmingham to try and corroborate the information that the hotline caller had given us and discovered that they had actually purchased a property from Birmingham City Council and through the right to voice scheme, it was this 3 bedroom house and she bought this property in 2005, an autumn five years before she told Solihull that she needed a council house because she was homeless and that she was eligible to buy it because she had been living there as a council tenant, she had been a tenant in Birmingham for about five or six years, so he was entitled to the full discount on the purchase of that property.

The property she bought in Birmingham was valued at £70,000, that's correct. She received a 35% discount of 24,500, so she ended up purchasing the property from Birmingham City Council for forty-five thousand five hundred pounds. There is some discount, isn't there? Yes, Shawn dug deeper and found out that Miss Hip Kiss was letting this property in. Birmingham, a fact that came to light because she was renting to housing benefit claimants and Birmingham City Council had her records. She has this property, she is renting around £400 a month, that is what she is charging the tenants and he is shouting at her. pocket a search of the Land Registry confirmed Miss Hit Kiss as the sole owner of the Birmingham address was enough to bring her in for a formal interrogation she appeared on the first occasion with a lawyer we have an interview under precautionary plan number of questions possible defenses she could propose a series of questions we wanted to ask her and she made no comments throughout the interview she refused to answer any questions with a kiss on the hip at dawn, giving the investigators the silent treatment further investigations were initiated and revealed a bigger surprise.

The next step was to get her bank statements to show that she was receiving rental income from that property and lo and behold, that showed that she was getting this monthly rental income from the property that we knew of from Birmingham, but not just that property. another property, not that she was renting there, yes, a second, so she owns a second property, that's true, yes, she used the profits from the first to then fund the purchase of the second property, so Miss Hip Kiss was raising money from renting two properties. in Birmingham the income is eight nine hundred pounds a month in rent, yes, from those two properties it turned out that Dawn Hip Kiss bought this house, her second property in Birmingham in 2007, so when she claimed to be homeless she in fact owned two houses, absolutely disgusting behaviour, yes all single level, yes yes Miss Hip seemed to be building a property portfolio, she owned and rented two houses in Birmingham whilst living in her council house in Solihull, but there was more to the allotment of property in Solihull.

In fact, he submitted a benefit claim to the council, so he received full housing benefit against the rent he should have received, should have been paid for that property and full tax benefit, so he wasn't paying any tax either. municipal. from NOSSA says she filled out a benefit application here and again. This form asks about the applicant's circumstances. All details are provided. Questions are asked. Do you own any other property? a council house here in Solihull was the beginning of the end for the Miss Hip Kisses Empire property. She stopped paying the mortgages on her Birmingham homes and they were repossessed by the banks.

Dawn Hip Kisses was arraigned on two counts of fraud at Birmingham Crown Court. her in November last year and she received a six-month prison sentence suspended for 12 months and a 12-month supervision order. The council is currently awaiting a hearing in the civil courts to claim profits made from her crimes at Solihull Council House. has been rillette this is a house here this is a bed Wow, I am 70 years old moved, that sum is quite impressive, isn't it a very nice house, very nice area, what is the situation with the leasing of the house at the moment? single parent family living in the property and they are very happy there they moved in just before Christmas congratulations on getting the property back housing fraud is just incredible it has reached such high levels now people see renting their own council house as something a way of making money how perverse is that she was a victim of that should not happen at all giving up that should leave them homeless taking it away without a doubt because they have benefited enough and at the end of the day this is probably I would say it is one of the factors that contribute the most to the problems we have today.

I think the government should send those officials working in the council to go out and find both people prosecuting them for doing such things and charging them an exorbitant sum. reason and that should return all the rents they pay, charge those people and get that money back. Housing rental fraud costs social landlords approximately £1.8 billion each year as a deterrent. The Social Housing Fraud Act 2013 allows councils to seek tough penalties against those who knowingly cheat the system if convicted tenants can be punished with up to two years in prison and a fine of up to £50,000 and ordered to repay any proceeds of fraud that the court considers appropriate in February 2008 a man obtained a Milton Keynes council flat after claiming to be homeless, he actually had a social tenancy with a Housing Association in another area which he deliberately concealed during his application in 2014.

He was sentenced to eleven weeks of custody suspended for twelve months one hundred and fifty hours of community service and ordered to pay £1,033 June costs to Milton Keynes Council. Here in Aylesbury Buckinghamshire there are two and a half thousand families waiting for social housing, so the last thing housing officials want is for anyone to use them. more than one house, which is exactly what was happening in our next case. This is the story of a man's selfish use of a two-bedroom Housing Association flat, letting his sixteen-year-old son and his friends stay there while they lived the whole time. with his wife in another council property elsewhere, not only that, but the man in question denied being married in order to get the apartment in the first place.

In December 2012, a 44-year-old man moved into this two-bedroom flat in Aylesbury, claiming he was a single father living with his teenage son, but in January last year neighbors were complaining about noise and anti-social behavior coming from from the floor. Vale of Aylesbury Housing Trust investigator Craig was assigned to the case. The initial report relates to noise nuisance and young people. Using that prophecy, we really didn't know why Craig, as a neighborhood, complained to keep a diary detailing any disturbances. There is a diary sheet. We encourage the complainant to complete these forms when an incident would occur.

Date hour. What happened. IV. Room. become legal documents, it is very important that you get as much detail as possible there. The noise coming from the apartment suggested that it was being used by a group of young people for socializing and late-night parties. The dollar sheets are very detailed and I could see that she was referring to a group of young people in a report which consisted of late night parties, high level of foot traffic, when Craig checked the Housing Association records he discovered that the legal tenant was a 44-year-old divorcee who had a 16-year-old son who had made the lease. checks, I could be sure that there was a child living there, at some point we have deviated, who is a legal tenem, the child taught ontology, what you should not live there, he lived in whispers and never addressed himself, but as The families they make them move a little bit and you know, I heard that it probably came down living there.

Social networks are often a valuable source of information for housing investigators and this was demonstrated in this case, Creeks found a Facebook account for both the father and her son. The information in the accounts led Craig to suspect that the son lived in the apartment but that his father, the tenant, had moved out. If that were the case, it would be a breach of the lease and would be classified as illegal subletting. I went on Facebook. I found the father I found the son He got to the Assumption pretty easily in the sermon I actually lived at that address People tend to use social media a lot and tell the world what I write about on a daily basis and whether the perpetrators are dumb enough like to use social media, then I will be the one to monitor thanks to the Social Housing Fraud Act 2013.

Craig was also able to see his tenants' financial records. Some of the information I was able to discover is information. Bank account relationships were very much a loan. According to many loan applications, these financial checks provided another vital clue: the official tenant had recently submitted a joint application for a bank loan. The second name on the application was that of a woman who suggested to Craig that the tenant might be in a relationship thatwoman had not heard of before. I suspect that this woman was his partner or perhaps even his ex-partner. She needed to find out who she was.

Krei decided to follow her hunch and check the tenant's name against the marriage records, don't they point to malice? It was hard not knowing that he would be married but I wanted to see if that existed and I received a certificate from Myra and the same name appeared that was on the application she made so that Craig had discovered the truth about his The tenant was not single at all, but who had gotten married in August 2012, shortly before taking over the rental of the apartment. Prospective social housing tenants must notify the council or Housing Association of any changes that may affect their housing needs. while they wait for the housing list which would include having a baby, a child, moving out and getting married or divorced, in this case the tenant had lied about being single when he was actually married, we just wonder why he didn't tell us that he is okay married, he is quite clear that for years we have felt that he is hiding something.

I want to know a little more about the wife, who she is, if they are still together and when he did, local Fisher, Craig, started going through the municipal tax records and discovered the new tennis wife. He also had a social housing property just four miles away. I managed to find out who it is through municipal taxes. She did a check with the local authority and she is paying council tax and I registered another house between the three with her children, so it seemed that between them this couple had not one but two Housing Association properties.

Craig then looked at his marriage certificate again and noticed that on the certificate they both gave another address, this time in Milton Keynes, and when Craig checked this address he discovered that it was also a social housing property, another point on the certificate if they are addressing me. Milton Keynes, which they are connected to, so I wanted to know how to see Milton Keynes dresses for free, as well as that date or wedding with them they own that property. In fact, I discovered for free that Milton Keynes council is actually owned by the local authority and he is still registered to live there, what had started as a routine noise complaint had now turned into an investigation into a tenant with links to three social housing properties, which tells me that the tenants actually have access to free social housing properties, one of which is in Milton Keynes and then two more in Al's burry, one of which is one promise that he will live with his family and the other is Dierdre where he should live, where we suspect his son lives in Loehmann.

We later found out what happened when the police were called. To help clean the apartment that should have been the home of a single father and his son, they actually rented the property with two young people between 15 and 17 years old. The address was nothing more than the dog house. I am very grateful for social housing. and I have been since I was 16 I went to apply for housing and they helped me in various ways and if it wasn't for that I wouldn't be living close to my family nor would I be able to do what I do for a living, which is that I am the driver of the mini taxi but friends who have been on waiting lists for housing for more than eight years and I don't see that they have any other option but to wait, it is quite distressing, we have been waiting for that for the In the last three years, waiting to move, I forgot for have too small eyes, yes, and since we are similar in family and I never made a living on Freebirds Erasmus, it is really fair that the government expects local authorities to give certain groups of people priority and move them to the top of their housing lists.

These groups include homeless people, people who served in the Armed Forces, and people with some medical conditions. The government also hopes councils will prioritize former prisoners because this has been proven. Not surprisingly, ex-offenders are 20% less likely to reoffend if they have stable accommodation, but councils can decide for themselves which groups to prioritize in their area, with its vibrant mix of people and the Olympic Park in Canary Wharf at your doorstep. There are people queuing to live in the east London borough of Tower Hamlets, you would have to be incredibly lucky to get a social housing flat like this here, although there are currently around 20,000 people on the waiting list, except for one tenant who lived here.

She threw it all away by renting his apartment while he was in prison. Luke's encounter with a virile Drummond. Avril can't afford it. Housing association researcher Poplar Harker Hello brother, how are you? Very good. Thank you. Standing here, a lot of people watching. In this block you wouldn't even think it was a social housing block, it's actually quite impressive isn't it? It is very nice, it is a new construction, they are a very nice, charming property, it is very close to Canary Wharf, close to the city, good transport. links, I mean ideal property. The lucky tenant who moved in in 2012 was a former prisoner, but 18 months later he returned to prison and attempted to profit by illegally renting out his apartment while he was behind bars.

One-bedroom apartments like this for people on the waiting list in this district. 20,000 people on the list, but for one bedroom properties I'd say up to about 19,000 people after just 3 months in his new job at Apple Housing Association. He was contacted by a neighbor who said he thought the apartment was being sublette, so Averill began making inquiries. We received notice from a neighbor that the property was being subleased by the legal tenant. I investigated things at first, it seemed like the neighbor might have been I was wrong. I did some initial checks and the legal tenants appear, for all intents and purposes, that he was living in the property.

He was on his electoral roll. Some financial details linked him to the property, but Averell is thorough and went back further. she discovered that there had been accusations of subletting before. I will also review the history of the lease. There had been previous allegations and much evidence that the property had been previously sublet. Records showed the official tenant had made contact. The Housing Association had agreed two years earlier to tell her that he would return to prison and asked if her father could look after the flat while he was inside. The Housing Association had agreed, but then Avril found a statement suggesting the flutter had been sublet while a tenant was in prison.

There was an agreement that her father would look after the property for him, but the father had sublet it. The tenant denied any knowledge of it because he was obviously serving time. We have a witness statement from the subtenant. It's okay and it actually shows. that he was paying rent of 800 pounds a month, he was giving the rent money to the girlfriends of local tenants, he says payment would be made the next day, we met her at a place in Shepherds Bush, we didn't have 1,600 pounds, so we gave him 800 pounds. in cash I left a security passport a couple of days later we met with the young woman at that time her commercial premises in e1 we signed an agreement and they gave us the keys to the apartment that is very probative witness statement is very it is very clear it is very white and black just like the girlfriend is meeting them she's taking someone's passports security it's almost like they were running it like a business in they very well they were at the time yeah that's the receipt here on the bank statement that shows that the money was going to that account.

Oh, that's pretty clear, isn't it nineteen? So, he was actually in prison. Yes, you can see the money going into her account, so she can't deny the knowledge. He must have known why all of a sudden. Large sums of money were being paid into his account, so it was clear that the official tenant had a history of subletting his apartment and pocketing the profits. It was not investigated at the time because before the Property Fraud Prevention Act 2013, most housing associations did not do this. It did not have a dedicated research team. Poplu Hakka was no exception at this stage, the prisoner was to be released from jail, so Averill's next step was to go to the apartment to see if he had returned to live there and, if not, then search.

Finding out who we decided to pay an early morning visit to took me about a month before I finally ran in July, we actually found someone on the property, but it wasn't Averill's official tenant, the former prisoner, it was someone we didn't know. I had seen if you claimed he had a right to be there, he was not our local tenant, he invited us in, he said he had a lease with our tenant, everyone does hula Avril, he said he had been living in the apartment with his girlfriend for a year. although she has now moved somewhere else, he was actually financially tied to the property, as were some of his friends, you know, they had been registered there for almost a year and although he couldn't find me a lease on that moment, he was quite cooperative. and gave us as much detailed information as you know we could obtain at the time, certain that it turned out that the former prisoner had been charging the couple more than double the amount he was paying the housing association for the flat and even had put the This is the last time he did not legally sublet the social housing.

The rent was about five hundred pounds a month. The subtenant said he paid him £1,100 a month, so he still earns six. We make a pretty good amount of profit. Yes, after Averill's talk with the man who lived in the apartment, it wasn't long before the official tenant was on the phone trying to explain himself. The next day, our legal tenant contacted me and told me that everything had been a misunderstanding and that it was a tenant agreement. He did not have a lease and it is illegal for a social housing tenant to select his property. It is acceptable to host a tenant.

An extra room can be used to earn some extra money, but the official tenant must live in the property. and the housing provider's permit has to be cut. Avril was not convinced by the tenants' claim that she had taken in a tenant. She did bring in this tenant agreement that appeared to have been manipulated with changed dates and rent amounts. and she was not convinced that the tenant was still living there. She also said that she had not sublet the entire property but that it was only a one bedroom apartment, so she said that she was sleeping in the city, which I find very difficult. believe that someone could subdue you, you know, or allow a couple to use the bedroom and then you're going to be sleeping on the couch, although I will always listen to the people I have, with the weight of the evidence we have.

I didn't believe what he was telling us: the housing associations' priority was to evict the tenants and get the flat back as soon as possible. She had no legs to stand on legally, there was no defense in this case and because she got away with it. for so long perhaps it was thought that she would continue to get away with it and that she too could deceive the eyes of the court. In fact, I have the order for possession of nine hundred pounds of rent. arrears and plus our costs as well as a little over £1,300 for us to pay, it can be a very long process but getting it back is worth it every time.

A deed with a court order for immediate possession of the property. It will soon be used by one of the twenty thousand households on the local waiting list. I don't agree with people who are illegally subletting their council properties again. I just think it's, I mean, I'm a taxpayer and I think that's wrong and it affects all of us who work hard contributing to the system and then there are other people who were abused in the system. I think someone took something. Something must be done about the profits made. I mean, people are profiting from illegally renting social housing and stealing it from those who need it, so yeah, they should probably be held accountable for that, it's a fraud, they've lost their right to have that tendency, you know, that's which i believe anyway, in 2014 a real estate agent was found guilty of subleasing his council property after civic advice.

Housing officers visited his home and checks revealed a tenancy agreement signed between the official occupier and his subtenants, as well as £1,000 deposited into his bank account the week before court. Harry, the subtenants moved out and the official occupant returned the home. keys to the property, however the court still ordered him to repay more than £7,000. We previously heard how a tenant claimed to be a single father and lived with his teenage son in a two-bedroom Housing Association flat, when in reality he was married andhad links to two other social housing properties, the tenant had access to three social housing pledges, one of which is in Milton Keynes and then two more every hour to try to find out what was going on and where his tenant actually lived.

She lived in Vail of Aylesbury. Trust investigated Craig asked for police assistance. I sent a quick request to the police and then to the neighborhood police team just to carry out some general patrols around the area during the night, when in all likelihood the year the tenant reported he would be asleep by now if that were the case. It turns out that the car was parked at the wife's address, so it would lead us to assume that she has been staying home, if that were the case and the tenant was no longer living in her two-bedroom apartment, she would be violating her tenancy, The police team carried out routine patrols between 10pm every night and the annual morning hours and found that the vehicle which is registered in his name was parked outside his wife's address and with her one parked in the driveway. entrance of that property, it was quite clear to us that he was staying at that property, Craig suspected that it seemed that the tenant had moved from his apartment to his wife's house, there was nothing wrong with that of course, but he should having notified them of his change of circumstances and Instead of returning the keys, it appeared that he had allowed his 16 year old son to stay there and in the eyes of the law this was classified as illegal subletting, regardless of whether his son paid or not the rent to stay there and find out. exactly what was going on krei decided to make an unannounced visit when I arrived at the address there were young people in the tsaatan at the door who refused to open but I could hear that there were young people living there shortly after the failed visit by Craig, the official The tenant contacted him and met him at the apartment a few hours later.

I received a phone call at the office and the legal tenant asked me if he wanted to come back. I want to know what he wanted and I went back to the address. I met there and it's pretty clear to me that he wasn't actually living there. He had returned to the property. It lit up quickly and was upside down. It seemed like he had been living there for a long time, but it was actually quite obvious. i.e. he wasn't even there, his toothbrush wasn't there, for example, he had no clothes, there are no clothes in the closet, there are no shoes by the door, for example.

All shoes for young people, not for adults not even for his feet. It was pretty clear to me that he didn't live there. The official tenant was still trying to convince Craig that he was a single father and needed the apartment for himself and his son. Member of Isis. Challenging questions. Said. For him, are you married? and he told me that he was not married. Little did he know about that soil. What he had managed to obtain the marriage certificate. Soho knew he was married. I interviewed him under caution, so by law he had incriminated himself to establish once and for all those who lived and did not live in the crane apartment decided to make another surprise visit and this time he had police backup weeks later We went back to her address again and this time we came with the police, the young girl came to the door.

The young girl was about 16 years old and she was alone. There were five other people on that property. There were sleeping bags there. It looked completely different to how had been at the property two weeks earlier, the visit to the apartment finally confirmed Craig. suspicions decided to interview the tenant again and this time present the evidence to him in the early stages of the interview he was denying our case he said we were wrong and that he had been living there however once I produced a marriage certificate worth it, I presented the reports I received from the police about his daily whereabouts and we would stay the night when topper gave him the documents that took him to another address, he soon backtracked and admitted and the warning that he no longer lives at this address Craig told him explained to the tenant that he could be prosecuted for illegal subletting and that if found guilty he could be fined or even sentenced to prison, as if it were normal, it is not investigated when a case has been proven in which the perpetrator will be quite eager to get out of the biggest possible problem and that's why he said that if he returned his keys we would still take action and since he normally stops, now you know he returned his keys very quickly, this apartment has been redecorated and is now the home of a young family and for Craig, your work is done.

I've heard it before where people say Ford leasing is not a felony. Many people do not know that criminal offense is a criminal offense and carries a prison sentence. The message to Algebra residents is that if you are going to break the law in relation to tenancy fraud or any aspect of tenancy, it is that we are working very hard to get you social housing, it is extremely important, it is increasingly an issue in where people are homeless, so I think we have to have a national responsibility for that and I think we have to increase social housing.

It's one of the key things, you know, in the country, it's just a huge city like London. I mean, you need to exist. Learn where to find affordable housing for people who really can't afford it, you know, considering height and housing prices, there are many people who will never be able to afford to buy houses, they need a decent place to live, human beings are humans. human beings and must be treated fairly. Local authority housing officers are not only there to look after social housing, they also ensure that private homes that are let to multiple occupants are used safely and the key was an inspection of a private property.

To open the next case, this is a story of lies and false identity that allowed a Molalla GD man to get a council flat and claim housing benefits while owning his own home in the Royal Borough of Greenwich, in the south of London. Take property fraud seriously Chief investigator Nigel Brown has helped recover over a thousand properties in the twenty years he has been on the job. This case came to mind after a routine visit from a council colleague who checked out this privately owned house in Plumd. In the east of the borough, the council has a duty of care to ensure that tenants in private accommodation are in safe accommodation and one of the duties of residential services is to visit multiple occupancy homes to ensure that tenants are living in safe accommodation.

Safe Environment Our Residential Services team visited this property on September 14 to ensure that the tenants within the property were living in good conditions. The team did some routine investigations on the owner and discovered that it was a man named Joseph Adebayo as part of their investigations. Residential services would get details of who the owner was. They discovered that the owner of the property was Joseph Adebayo. The council offices carried out some checks on the owner and when they examined his bank accounts and investigated his credit references it appeared that he had a second identity they did checks on a chosen adebayo and identified that he also had another animal name and the G D as the owner seemed have two identities.

Nigel and the fraud team became involved and then referred the matter to us as we deal with all crimes. investigations and they passed the case on to us at that time Nigel searched for the second identity through the local authority records and discovered that the name Ligeti appeared on the radar of Greenwich Council he was one of the tenants of the council, first of all Nigel needed to find out if the two identities belonged to the same man. Once we had the information from residential services we looked further into Mr Ligeti we made sure and established that he is one of the same person, this would involve weak checks, identity checks etc, inquiries at all different agencies before establishing that the two names belonged to one person because they both have the same date of birth and were connected to the same addresses there were also links between the bank accounts of the two identities and both names were linked to the same mobile phone number, in reality they did not We have no doubt that it is the same person, they finally found his passport. details and discovered that his full name was actually Molay a Kim bard a Can't wait Lachie D Joseph Adebayo was a fake ID now they needed to know how a homeowner came to occupy a council apartment that Lachie D had first applied for once for a social apartment in 2003, investigations found that mr.

Lagina had applied for housing in 2003 because it is overcrowded with his family, Mr. Ligeti had the right to a social housing apartment because the house he was in was overcrowded. He had to wait six years, but finally in 2009 this apartment became available in Greenwich 2003 mr. Luigi came to the Royal Borough of Greenwich and basically said he needed somewhere to live because he lived with his family and his siblings, it was overcrowded in 2009, about six years later, we gave him a rent and offered him a one-bedroom room. apartment on the premises here, but investigation reveals that at that time mr.

The GD had already bought a house of her own, she said she did not mention it to the council, but instead moved into a social housing apartment and started renting her own house to tenants. Sony's housing application, mr. Luigi, you did not declare that he actually owned the other properties and on his form that I have here there is a question that asks: are you or someone moving with you to the other presidential property? Looney that he took now, if we had known that you were a property owner, we would not have given you a municipal apartment here or anywhere else and we were not content with fraudulently occupying the micellar social housing apartment.

GD then applied for housing benefit, he basically got the rent and in 2011, two years later, he started claiming housing benefit from that address, once again he did not mention that he owned any property, it was not until the Routine check of his house collapsed in 2014 that officers began to suspect GD of micellar irregularities. Our investigations identified that he was the owner of the address which was done through a lab check that I have and it basically says that it is only from 16 December 2005 and that he bought it for £160,000. None of this was told to us at all and was kept completely secret from us.

Once the fraud team had the evidence that Ligeti was both the tenant of the social housing and the owner, they called him for an interview we did with him about the fact that the owners of the property and Reid Haven Road and denied that he was the owner, said that although his name is in the Land Registry, it is actually his brother who owns the property and he simply put his name because his brother couldn't get a mortgage because he lives abroad. from there that was supported simply because he was also mr. Luna was also the owner of the property and upon receiving the rent there was no indication that Renny was paying mental money to his brother, it just didn't add up, it just didn't seem to be true, the investigation team had all the documentary evidence they had. he needed mr.

Lowe Judy was Deford on the council and they brought a case against him, the lord. Liu's case was actually a summons to appear before the annoying Magistrate's Court and he attended and pleaded not guilty to the five charges against him. The matter was then passed to the Crown Court and the matter was called by the crown and there mr. Lejeune pleaded guilty to all five charges, so our case against him was proven when he appeared at Woollett Crown Court, Mr. Right, he was jailed for 16 months, but as far as Nigel was concerned in the team of four, that is not the end of the matter as a result of your fraud against us, mr.

Lovejoy, was sentenced to 16 months in prison. He is currently serving his sentence, however, the debt he needs to pay us has not been paid. We are now pursuing him for the £70,000 he owes us and the £20,000 for benefit fraud. the good thing mr. Lejeune, he owns a property on Reed Haven Road, he has capital, therefore he has enough to return our money, the 90 thousand pounds that we are now going to claim and that through the civil call, the leasing cheaters are abusing one of our nation's greatest assets, our society. Housing existence, but one by one those cheaters are being stopped in their tracks thanks to housing investigators hitting the streets and knocking on doors across the UK.
