A DISABLED woman living in a 'cannabis fog' caused by a nuisance neighbour says nothing has yet been done to tackle the problem.

Vi Jakubek who lives in Cripplegate House, one of the tower blocks in St John’s, Worcester, complained that a neighbour who lives underneath her is smoking cannabis and the fumes fill her flat, interacting with her medication and stopping it work so that her health suffers.

The 63-year-old, who suffers from fibromyalgia, which causes pain all over the body and extreme fatigue has also run out of her prescription for asthma early because the fumes have made her rely even more heavily on her inhaler.

Ms Jakubek, who has lived at the flat for more than 10 years, says the man is smoking the cannabis on a regular basis and sometimes the smell is so overpowering she has to leave and stay at her daughter’s house or at a friend’s place in Malvern. She first began reporting the issue to the police and housing association eight years ago.

Ms Jakubek also has asthma, osteoporosis, arthritis in her feet, knees and hips and needs a stick and mobility scooter to get around.

She returned to her home on Thursday and said the flat was again full of cannabis fumes.

“I had to ring my daughter to come and get me and rang the housing officer and said the whole place is stinking again. "They have had four weeks (since the article appeared in the Worcester News) and nothing has been done and, apparently, they’re not going to do anything" she said.

Ms Jakubek added: "I feel quite helpless, like nobody is in my corner. Nothing has changed. He sprays a lot of air freshener out to disguise the smell but that is after it has already gone everywhere."

She feels she should not have to move but thinks no-one would want to move into the flat because of the situation.

She still has to stay with her daughter or at a friend’s in Malvern if the smell becomes too overpowering.

She has two inhalers and says she has had to make two requests for repeat prescriptions in five weeks when normally the prescriptions last her two months.

On one occasion, on August 19, she returned to her flat to find a 'cannabis haze'.

The smell was so strong that she rang her call alarm and the warden arrived around two hours later.

Complaints have also been logged with West Mercia Police and Ms Jakubek has also contacted Worcester MP Robin Walker.

The terms of her tenancy agreement refer to 'nuisance annoyance', including drug use, and thus Fortis has a duty to act, she believes.

A spokesperson for Fortis Living said: "We are continuing to work to tackle her concerns."

The tenant about whom Ms Jakubek has complained has declined to comment.

However, it is understood that there are mitigating health issues which Fortis cannot discuss because of data protection.
