ReplyDeleteNa normal landlord tenant fight. The landlord decided to show tenant pepper and fell into tenants trap.
ReplyDeleteNow, tenant can claim she parked Gwagon in her room. Lmaooo.
Happened to my friend when she was in school, she broke in cos she was locked out , they now started claiming heaven and earth.
They later went to say it was all lies tho, guess their conscience pricked them
