Home visit to Ms Deborah Andrews flat. Attendees Dawn Allen TMO and CPN Bola
Quadri
Home visit to Ms Andrews advised that her neighbour at number 109 has for the past few
months harassed, intimidated, stalked her a11c made a life a complete misery. He
continuously plays loud music, bangs on her ceiling and door alleging that she is
monitoring his movements in his flat. She feels petrified by his presence and as a result
refused to leave her flat for fear bumping into him on her way out. She has missed a few
appointments with her social worker as a result, she has now been subjected to making
home appointments pending the time this matter is resolved. She explained that they use
to be acquaintances before the relationship went sour. She believes the whole problem
started when he claimed the decoration in his flat was damaged as a result of a leak
coming from her flat. She confirmed that she had a leak from her overflow a few months
ago which has since been repaired but, the damage alleged had occurred. Ms Andrews
also recalled an incident when the perp spat in her face. Ifs been one issue after the other
she advised the recent event which took place a week ago. She was on her way out to
attend her appointment with her CPN when he apprehended her and threatened to kill her.
She was pretty shaken from the incident that instead of

attending her appointment, returned home immediately. She advised that she contacted
the police but, wasn't taken seriously as they assumed, she was drunk at the time of the
call. She advised that she wasn't in the list drunk but, just the way she spoke due to her
condition. She still wasn't taken seriously and had to abandon the call. She found this very
frustrating and advised that it was not the first time this would happen to her. Her CPN
also confirmed her statement and expressed her dissatisfaction at the way she was treated.
Ms Andrews felt completely let down by the police and became frightful for her safety
especially, as she knows the perpetrators has shells in his flat. I observed in her flat that
her floors were very creaky, I was made aware by Dawn that most of the flats in the block
are like that. Unfortunately, the creakiness exacerbates the noise level in the flats and
cause more problems than usual. I advised that I would contact the police to make further
enquiries. I will also contact MHT to enquire if Mr Cordell is known to them. At some
point the perpetrator will need to be interviewed and a warning letter issued on him. I will
contact the repairs team and try to arrange a surveyor to visit her flat and see what
assistance can be offered I further advised that her case will be investigated, and an
officer will get back to her to discuss further with her. Her CPN and TMO will be kept
informed of updates Bola Quadri has already put in place a safeguard alert.
