It was recently reported that a group of Lithuanian squatters are behind a scam in which people’s homes are seized and their homes locks are changed while they are out, even walking their dogs.
The illegal tenants have been squatting in one property for at least five months and the authorities are powerless to evict them without a court order.
In another case, an elderly man returned from taking his dogs for a walk and found that when he returned home, that a gang of Lithuanian’s had moved in and were throwing all his possessions out of the window. The most shocking part of this story is that police are powerless to act as the occupation is a civil matter.
