هل يستطيع المالك قطع جميع المرافق عن المنزل وتهديد المستأجر بالطرد منه؟

مرحبًا،

قام مالك العقار بقطع الماء والكهرباء للمرة الرابعة هذا الأسبوع لأن توقيعي لم يتطابق مع الشيك. ماذا يمكنني أن أفعل؟

وهو يهددني الآن إذا لم أدفع حتى الغد نقدًا فسوف يغير الأقفال وسيطردني.

Dear T.,

Good day!

Kindly note that, as per RERA laws and regulations, a landlord is not supposed to disconnect the electricity even if you delayed or missed a rental payment. Such disconnection may be sued (both criminal and civil).

We can assist you promptly in this matter. Please let us know whether any cheque(s) have been dishonored.

Kindly share further details with us by phone or email.

Best regards.

The lessor (landlord) may not cut off the basic services (utilities) of water, electricity, and air conditioning from the tenant under any circumstances, even if this circumstance is a delay in the payment of rent.

You can go to the police, and write a report of the incident.

As for the cheque, you can submit another cheque that matches your signature so that it can be cashed.

Call the police and complain about him. He doesn't have the right to do that.
