@itvnews: A mother says her family’s semi-detached home has become infested with vermin and mould and is now “freezing cold” after a neighbour demolished the adjoining property four years ago. Shivarna Mirta shares the home, in Pudsey, Leeds, with her elderly mother and young son. She says the stress has been making her ill and her heating bills have risen to £630 a month. Shivarna's insurance company has filed a legal claim but it will be two years until it goes to court. ITV News' efforts to contact the former owner of the site have been unsuccessful.

It’s absolutely incredible that someone could inflict that onto somebody and face no consequences and more incredible that woman is left without any help or support. It’s disgusting

Someone's job is about to be up in smoke, you can never approve a demo on a semi-detached home with active tenants on the other side like this is insane.

The council should step in and build an exterior wall up the side of her house to weather and vermin proof the property, the bill should then be sent to the land owner.

incredibly puzzled as to why anyone would think it’s reasonable to demolish half a semi detached in the first place
