The short answer is no.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have seen quite a number of articles telling the landlords that they can always invoke the right of &#8220;self help&#8221;, that is, take the matter into their own hands and evict the non paying tenants themselves. Some advice the use of a notice outside the demised premises and take possession in the presence of the Police officer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This will work IF the landlord is able to first of all locate the police office and secondly request the police officer to be present to testify as a witness on his behalf during the hearing. If the landlord can do neither all the advice given will amount to nothing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4>EVICTION SELF HELP WHAT IS THE RISK FACED BY THE LANDLORDS<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>If the landlord should enter the demised premised premises without a court order, even if it is in the presence of a police officer; if the tenant should accuse the landlord of removing properties belonging to the tenant without a court order, the landlord may be liable to pay damages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore do not enter without a court order.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>YOU HAVE A NON PAYING OVERSTAYING TENANT&#8230; We as your lawyer have the expertise and the right solution for you to recover the rent and to evict him. &nbsp; Versi Bahasa Malaysia \u4e2d\u6587\u7248 The &nbsp;greatest fears of a landlord that his tenants are not paying him. &nbsp; The second fear is that how can the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1803,"featured_media":11866,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[60,28],"tags":[78],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/alexchanglaw.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3849"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/alexchanglaw.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/alexchanglaw.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alexchanglaw.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1803"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alexchanglaw.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3849"}],"version-history":[{"count":63,"href":"https:\/\/alexchanglaw.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3849\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9338,"href":"https:\/\/alexchanglaw.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3849\/revisions\/9338"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alexchanglaw.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11866"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/alexchanglaw.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3849"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alexchanglaw.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3849"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alexchanglaw.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3849"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
