A young woman who recently moved into her new home has revealed that she does not feel she is being "taken seriously" by the council - despite the home being infested by rats and hoards of maggots.
The 22-year-old - who wishes to remain anonymous - moved into a council flat in Netherhall, Leicester as part of a mutual exchange - but was not informed of the state of the property before picking up the keys.
Her hopes of a fresh start were squashed after finding the abode plagued by rats and maggots falling from the ceiling.
