A couple who are parents to two young children have been left 'helpless and homeless' after returning home to their property they were renting out to find the tenants had not left. It has left Carna and Ganes Brooks, parents of a one-year-old and nine-year-old child, left with no other option but to sofa surf for four weeks with their suitcases.
They informed their tenants they would be moving back to their property in Dartford, Kent, from Dubai in February this year so that by May they would need to have left. But a cancer diagnosis and treatment for Carna pushed their arrival back to July.
They were back on July 19 but have been forced to stay at friends for more than a month as the tenants refuse to leave, KentLive reports. They will be unlikely to enter their own property again until November, they are told, as they seek to gain an eviction notice through the courts.

As well as the tenants ignoring a Section 8 notice notifying them the house should be vacated by June 28, they have also fallen behind on rents. The Brooks agreed to July 13 for the latest date to leave for the tenants and said they would waive their rent to help them get a deposit together.
Carna, 39, said: "We called the police for sensible advice on the matter as we stood hopeless looking at each other.

A delivery driver who claims he was viciously kicked in the head after being ‘attacked by a road rage driver ’ has slammed police after they gave him with a recorded caution instead. James McGoldrick called officers for help after being followed by a man who had earlier cut him off on the road while he was on his way to drop off food in East Kilbride last November. The 59-year-old claims he was knocked to the ground and repeatedly punched and kicked by the man as he tried to defend himself. But James, who is also a carer for his partner, claims that Police Scotland officers did not arrive at his home to take a statement until two days after the incident - and that they failed to record any information about his injuries. After around two weeks without contact from cops, the dad-of-two says officers then turned up at his partner’s home and slapped him with a formal police caution while allegedly stating that he had just ‘been in a fight and lost’. James, who believes he is a victim of injustice, told the Record: “I ended up with a concussion but they’re trying to say it was a wee stramash.
