Rubbish hangover: Neighbours left to tidy up after parties at unoccupied house
Tidying up the mess in your own house after a gathering the night before is bad enough, but neighbours in central Auckland are having to deal with party detritus from a nearby unoccupied property.
An untenanted house in the central Auckland suburb of Mt Roskill has prompted complaints from neighbours, after parties are thrown at the property, leaving behind piles of rubbish, and no occupants in sight.
Neighbours are convinced the parties are thrown by the owner, Nasir Ahmad Sharifi, or close associates of Sharifi, but he says that’s not true and he has no idea who is “trashing” his property.
