The Police Administration has taken exception to an emerging trend of landlords ejecting tenants from their properties because they belong to one political party or another.
According to a press release from the security agency’s Public Affairs Directorate, reports reaching it indicate that some landlords and landladies in some cities across the country are victimizing their tenants on political grounds.
Some of the landlords, the release maintained, “are even said to break into their tenants rooms to forcibly throw their belongings out”.
Landlords and ladies are being entreated by the Police to desist from such actions as according to it, “They constitute a criminal offence”.
“House-owners who genuinely seek to terminate the tenancy of any one hiring in his or her house should use the proper procedure.”
The Police, the release warned: “Would not spare anyone who does anything which borders on criminality in his or her bid to eject his tenant.”
