A tenant has spoken of her distress as she is trapped in a bitter battle with her landlord after he put up a metal fence, blocking her from accessing the garden and driveway she pays for.
Maneeca Belbin moved into the home at Silverdale, in the outskirts of Sydney, Australia, eight months ago and shortly after, her nightmare began.
The woman said she was aware that her landlord, named Daniel, wanted to carry out some landscaping and concrete works, but claimed that he told him the renovation would be "minor" and only last three months.
