Victim of wrong accusation.

Friends if you have any idea I need a very important advice on this.

I am an Asian (Indian) living in UK with my family (wife and daugter). I live in my current residence from last 1 year and my (american) neighbour has been living from last 8 - 9 months. From the time he has come to live I have also got the feeeling of beloved against me. It does'nt looks like he is employed as he seems to have ample amount of time to indulge in others life.

He had lodged a complaint to my local council accusing me as a wife beater and abusing my family which is utter rubbish. The council admin did visited my home and my wife rejected his statement as absolutely false and disgusting. Yesterday he spoke to me as I returned from my holiday that I should stop doing what he has alleged for otherwise this will be escalated to the police. I told him he should go to the council or the police if he is really concerned.

As I am away to work for the whole day I am really really worried for my family as he is a rough guy and do not hesitate to talk to my wife directly which I hate. Also I am on WP visa and need to ensure that any move I take will not effect my status or any application (including natulisation) in future.

What should I do ? should I approach the council?

I am also considering to move from my current residence.

Thank a lot for reading.

first of all, UK law applies to everyone in the UK - work permit holders, visitors and citizens alike.

When you eventually apply for naturalisation they will run your details by the police. All that can count against you are criminal convictions or strong suspicions of wrongdoing. Any police report in which you are the complainant can not count against you.

It is your right to complain to the police if you or your family are being harrassed.

Nilesh,

Would that really matter, the law should be same in whole UK.
But still if it does I stay in East London which is not having a good image

Why don't you lay a charge of harassment against him at your local police station. Tell them that you fear for the safety of your wife and kids and that you fear he may be a sexual predator or a child molester. That should get their attention.

Or try to get the council to issue an ASBO against him.

I would file for harassment. Or just move away from Mr Nutter.

I was thinking may Mr Nutter thinks what are you doing in a "White" area. But east london should be fine.

I think you should do what Rogerio is suggesting.

Are you sure he's American? There can't be that many unemployed Americans hanging around the East end with nothing to do all day but harass Indians. Lots of British, yes, but Americans?

Yes he is an american and as I've heard he dont have a good history probably criminal cases against him in the US.

I went to the local council and they suggested me to talk to "Anti-Harassment and Discrimination Bureau" in my local area. Since this is the first time he has spoken to me directly I want to treat as Mr Nutter. I am thinking of filing harassment case against him without any action being taken. This would be a proactive step from my side.

What does this have to do with immigration? I thought this was an immigration forum.

The OP was asking if the accusations made against him are likely to jeopardise his visa or his chances of obtaining British citizenship. He has a point, since the Home Office's definition of "good character" is more general than simply having no criminal record. However, I really don't think the Home Office definition takes into account accusations which are found to be false by the police.
