DUE TO PRESS START TIMES AT OUR NEW PRESSES WE CAN ONLY CARRY THE NATIONAL LOTTERY RESULTS IN OUR LATER EDITIONS A HOMEOWNER has had his £600,000 flat taken off him because he put in a new kitchen.
Charles McCadden didn’t seek permission from the freeholder, who lived downstairs.
He bought the flat on the upper floor of a Victorian terrace in Kensal Green, Brent, north-west London, with inheritance money.
But due to a forfeiture law, that allows a freeholder to take ownership of a property if there is a breach in the lease, Mr McCadden was removed from his home.
Mr McCadden, who suffers from chronic illness, has called for a change in the law.
He said: ‘The whole episode has made me feel very anxious, stressed out and at times suicidal. I am living a nightmare.”
Sebastian O’Kelly, of the charity Leasehold Knowledge Partnership, said: “The loss of a £600,000 asset is out of proportion to the dispute.”
INQUESTS will open next week into the deaths of John and Sue Cooper, who died on a Thomas Cook holiday at an Egyptian resort.
Authorities in Egypt say the pair, of Burnley, Lancs, died of E. coli poisoning but their daughter, who found them, disputes this.
It may take months to analyse the findings.
