“BRITAIN'S worst neighbour” has finally been kicked out of his street.
harassed disabled pensioner Steven Persaud, including making threats to “chop up” his carer and wielding a hammer outside his house – all caught on Ring doorbell footage.
The jobless 56-year-old against his neighbour, 65, after becoming irked by the installation of the camera in 2020 – which he said violated his human rights.
In one incident, he was filmed removing the hinges from a shared gate, before it fell backwards and narrowly missed crushing him.
The feud resulted in 25 court hearings and saw the aggressor given a 24-month restraining order, and an electronic curfew.
However, after reportedly being threatened with an eviction order by his council earlier this month, Groves had apparently “calmed down”, according to neighbours.
He even reportedly vowed: “I'm staying put. I'll behave!”
But, it seems to have been too little too late after he was finally booted out in recent weeks, and moved elsewhere, reports MailOnline.
Those he harassed say they still live in fear he will return or wreak havoc on his new neighbours.
One even said the only accommodation he deserves is a “tent with the rats”.
New footage shows Groves being escorted from his one-bed bungalow in the Shard End area of Birmingham.
Mr Persaud's niece Victoria Rascinskis told the outlet: “It's been absolute hell. Groves should have been in prison in my opinion.
“Instead, we had five years of abuse and fear. We're lucky no one was seriously hurt or worse.
“He locked carers out, bolted gates shut and screamed through the windows in the early hours. He was a danger to everyone.
“Yet the system protected him – not my uncle.”
A Birmingham City Council spokesperson told the Mail: “We can confirm that Steven Groves has been evicted due to breaches of the tenancy agreement.
“We know that Mr Groves behaviour has caused significant distress for Mr Persaud. We can assure him that any new tenant will have to comply with our tenancy conditions and our improved anti-social behaviour policy that we have introduced.
“No tenant should have to tolerate anti social behaviour and we will use the appropriate tools and powers available to us to address it.”
Shocking footage
Shocking footage previously obtained by Flying Eze showed him attempting to unclip the wires as he targeted his wheelchair bound neighbour, and continually harassed him and his carers.
He ranted at them, using foul-mouth language, and jumped out at them.
He told one woman, “You are a f***ing rat”, and allegedly told another he would “chop her up and put her in the f***ing bin”.
Locals last month told how Groves was still living in his modest home but is rarely seen out.
Another resident said: “He was worried about losing his home and the housing association said they would evict him if he continued misbehaving and offered him alternative accommodation.”
The man said: “He was given a restraining order and an electronic curfew by the courts.
“He was warned he could be kicked off the street and not allowed within a certain radius of the neighbourhood.”
He told how Groves had told him he didn’t want to move, telling him: “I’m staying put. I’ll behave! I don’t want to go anywhere else. I like living here.”
Groves had previously admitted three charges of harassment at Birmingham Magistrates Court in February against his neighbour and two carers, and was ordered to pay £100 compensation to each of his victims.
The court heard the carers were sometimes “too frightened” to enter the Steven’s home and at time he had to go without help.
The victim’s niece Ms Riscinskis told JPs: “It has been hell for my uncle. He is a disabled man and he just doesn't need this added stress.”
