The Day The Squatters Moved Into Guy Ritchie’s House
Squatters who managed to enter the runlocked building owned by Ritchie and posted a section 6 notice in the window that claimed the listed building was now there new home and that their intention was to stay indefinitely.
But by displaying a legal notice will protect the rights of those occupiers of the building and make it a criminal offence for anyone to enter without their approval.
To make matters worse, the group, calling themselves the Really Free School intended running a free school with classes covering squatters’ rights.
What may come as a surprise to many people is that squatting is not a crime: it’s unlawful, but not illegal, meaning it is a dispute between the landlord and the occupiers.
So, how did Mr. Ritchie regain possession of his house? He would have to either go down the legal route and apply for a possesion order, or wait until all the squatter had decided to leave the building. Any other method would not have been allowed by law, including sending in some characters from his well known gangster movies! Nearly all squats are evicted after a possession order has been made by a court – which was granted in this case because the squatters’ presence meant work couldn’t proceed on his development of the property.
As vacant property and security guard company, what advice would Secure Site UK give to Mr. Richie? The major consideration is that the premises is constantly and adequately locked at all times. Particularly if it’s a long-term development, landlords and developers could consider either putting security screens over vulnerable windows and security access doors, to prevent unwanted prowlers; or installing a temporary vacant property alarm – giving them an immediate alert to an unexpected intruders – therefore protecting expensive plant and machinery, as well as the much sought-after copper in the miles of cabling running through today’s new developments.
