it's official, i have one hell of a crazy neighbour...

he's driving me mad, he needs to be sectioned under the mental health act, the dude will stand outside his house (opposite our back garden) shouting nonsense, 90% of the time i don't even know what he's talking about, it's complete and utter nonsense.

i awoke just before fajer to the noise of some dude shouting, he's been doing this for the past 4 days and if your wondering it's the same guy that had his house broken into by 4 people looking for their dog that Saturday morning a couple of weeks ago, now i don't blame those people, the guy probably barbecued the poor dog and ate it and uses its bones to brush his teeth with.

i swear, i hear him shouting at all times in the night, 2 am, 4 am, 9 am, it's getting ridiculous, and he stands out in just a towel wrapped around him!!!! today wa blue towel day, yesterday he had a white towel on, i'm thinking red tomorrow?

i took this picture of him around 2pm just after duhur prayers.

he can stand their for hours on end, i haven't seen any other family members, and no one has the guts to say anything to him, every one is just minding their own business, except me that is, I'm going to do something cause he could bring harm to himself or others, he at least needs assessment.

I've already mentioned before that i live near a mosque, so obviously you get allot of Muslims walking through the alley way or driving through it, he stands at the entrance to his back garden lecturing the Muslims, shouting and what not, like i said he has a really strong accent so i don't even know what he says most of the time but i do hear the occasional word like 'blah blah blah Jesus Christ, blah blah blah, suicide bombers, blah blah blah mecca, blah blah blah masjed, terrorist, blah blah swear word etc.'

and if its not the Muslims then its any living creature that happens to walk past, i swear i have lived here for over 9 years and never once has anything of this sort happened, I'm guessing he moved into the area recently.

if I'm woken up in the middle of the night one more time then i will take a bazeen stick and bash it across his forehead, enough of the shouting dude, some people like to sleep!!!!!!!!

last night around 10pm the guy came out and had a shouting fit like no other, really acting crazy and shouting until his voice became high pitched and then he burst into tears and then cackled in laughter ???

so i contacted the police for our area and told them about this guy, they noted it down and said they would look into it.

this morning at 8:00 am they called me asking for more information, they told me that there have been some complaints in the past including one form the ambulance!! so i gave them a detailed report, i was on the phone for like 15 minutes, the police officer said that unfortunately it's not illegal to shout in your own back yard but he said they will make a visit and speak to him and assess his surroundings as well as himself.

it may be that he may need to be sectioned but that usually takes a family members judgement and not the police, the other option was that they speak to housing association and they could assess him to see if he needs to be sectioned.

that's all well and good but maybe another option is to put a cork in his mouth to stop him making so much noise.
