Nuisance neighbour              20/1/12

A noisy tenant is being evicted by Hebridean Housing Partnership (HHP) after complaints from neighbours.

Neil Mackinnon promised to move to the mainland if he retained his freedom when he appeared at Stornoway Sheriff Court on Wednesday.

But the 45-year-old of 16 Torquil Terrace, Stornoway, was sent to prison for a total of six months instead.

He previously admitted persistently banging on his next door neighbours door on 15th December. He also pleaded guilty to resisting arrest.

The court heard he was playing loud music in his flat in the early hours of the morning. Police were called when it went on until 4am. They heard him deliberately banging about upstairs as well as banding on the door of the downstairs flat.
