Tarsem Dhillon operated an illegal House of Multiple Occupancy (HMO) at a property in Station Road, Hayes, where he housed at least 14 people despite the licence allowing only six. This breached a previous enforcement notice. The council investigated after receiving reports from residents, and officers discovered the violations in March 2023. He illegally earned approximately £20,000 in rent over a 10-month period.
