From the tribunal's reasons on the amount

stored in one of his shoe boxes had been taken. … When I came back, my property was not in my room. I saw bags everywhere. My property was downstairs. On my way to the kitchen, I saw shoe boxes and I recognised those were my shoe boxes so I went to check the boxes. I saw my shoes but not the money so I went upstairs and saw my room was empty because she brought some bags and these were bin bags and she put stuff in there. I tried to call her and tried to text but she did not respond. So, I sent a message saying that, if I do not hear from you in 10 minutes, I will call the police. So I did. She told police that I had moved away a week ago and I was moving in that day. The door to room was open. I found a new key lock in my room and I guess she wanted to change the lock.” 45. … Accordingly, at that stage, he did not realise that the lock had been changed. Later that day, he discovered that the lock to the front door had been changed when he could no longer use his key to enter the property and someone let him in. The lock to the inner communal door had not been changed. … I put my key into the door. It was in the afternoon. … As I came in, I saw my belongings. Everything was there … the sound system. The room was in a state - there are photos. … I was shocked. … There was car standing by, I do not know who it belongs to, and she drove off.” 47. …
