Judge rules in favour of squatter

Nick Ansell/PA Wire

A squatter has been told he has the right to live in a property he first entered and started renovating in 2000 - but it's not over yet.

Keith Best applied to register title to 35 Church Road, Newbury Park, Ilford, east London - a three-bedroom, semi-detached house. His application was on the basis that he had been living there (known as being "in adverse possession" or "squatter's title") for a period of 10 years.
