A few months ago I posted how my neighbor (let's call him Mr. J) had sent me threatening notes and filed a police report.
For a long time I didn't hear anything from him, but today he had put a note on his door telling other neighbors to report me to the landlord. He claims that I made noises on 24th February at 6 o'clock in the morning even though I was living at my parents's house. My parents had left on a holiday on 21st Feb, and so I was living at their house. I have a telegram photo that proves that I was at my parents's house on 23rd at 5:30pm/17:30, and a Steam chat message sent on 24th 11pm/23 o'clock where I tell my cousin that I'm currently living at my parents's place. I wonder if they're enough proof for the landlord and police?
I met one neighbor (who lives on the same floor as me and was carrying lots of beer cans) and he told me he has never heard any noises from my apartment and that he has no complains against me. I asked him if he can contact the landlord and prove that I'm innocent, but he wasn't actually enthusiastic about it, so I'm not sure if he will help me or not. I went to talk to four other neighbors, but only one of them opened a door, a man who lives next door the crazy neighbor Mr. J on the second floor. He was a giant bald man who looked like he uses steroids and smelled alcoholic.
I asked him if he had got any notes from the complaining neighbor Mr. J and he told me he had. I showed him proof that I was away from apartment at the time and he believed me that it wasn't me - this time. He claimed that I've been quiet for a short while, but then started to complain that half a year ago I constantly run around in my apartment at night. I told him I don't run around in my apartment at night, and he told me he doesn't believe me. He said in his own words "Who else could it be?!". I told him that there are other neighbors who live above him and that it could be one of them, but he still insisted it must be me because "who else could it be?!". He said "I'll report you, if you ever again walk in your apartment at night!"
Btw, I met the crazy neighbor Mr. J while I was telling my name to the neighbor. Mr. J must have heard when I told my name to the other person, but he just walked by me with a big smile on his face and didn't say anything to me. I must say, he looked really suspicious. He was wearing a woman's coat, and he had a large white beard (almost bigger than a Santa Claus and much uglier) which he hadn't cut or combed in ages. He looked like a person who never showers or combs his hair or shaves his beard, and he also looked like he would also be an alcoholist and a drug user. Honestly, the ugliest, uncleanest, most smug person I've ever met in my life.
I then went back to my own apartment and called a number where lawyers help people. ( I will probably get a 100€ phone bill but it was definitely worth it). I told the lawyer my problems and she told me I can go to the police and file a defamation against my neighbor Mr. J (defamation means that your honor and reputation has been hurt, I hope I used the right terms here). She also says that Mr. J is clearly bullying me.
She also told me that before my landlord believes them, my neighbors should be able to prove that it's me who makes noises, and that claims such as "I saw you had lights on at night" isn't enough proof. She also told me that it was good that the one neighbor I met said "Who else could it be?!" because that means he isn't 100% sure that it's me and doesn't probably have proof. She suspected that the neighbor is the crazy neighbor Mr. J's friend and/or that Mr. J has probably convinced him that it's me.
She also told me that it's legal for me to secretly record conversations if I'm involved. I wish I had known that earlier.
Unfortunately, I have to wait till Monday before I can go to the landlord or to the police station. I must say, I'm not afraid of the police, but I am afraid of the landlord and the crazy neighbor Mr. J and his steroid friend. I'm afraid that what if my neighbor Mr. J has convinced lots of other neighbors to report me and what if all the other neighbors will make false reports to the landlord, because he sent them notes telling them to report me. What if he manages to rally all the other neighbors against me and get me kicked out of my own apartment?
