A callous tenant illegally sublet - to 35 people

A callous tenant has been jailed after he was shopped to the council for changing the locks on a property he illegally sublet - to 35 people.

Ilie Florin Dragusin (trip corr) was one of three head tenants to convert the property into an unlicensed HMO where 35 men were crammed into substandard living conditions with mattresses decked from wall to wall.

The callous subletter bolted the men out of a converted three bedroom semi-detached house and threw out their belongings when the property was raided by a council enforcement team.
