Berlin tenant's apartment links to sanctioned Russian senator
A Berlin tenant suffered a housing nightmare with mold, cold, and no hot water, leading to health issues for her child. Investigations link the property to a Russian senator on a sanctions list. The tenant's apartment in Berlin experienced months without heat and hot water, while mold spread. The Mieter*innengewerkschaft Berlin confirmed the poor conditions, affecting multiple apartments. The senator's husband signed a purchase agreement for the building in 2011. The senator, Lyubov Glebova, is on the EU sanctions list. If confirmed as the landlord, she could face legal repercussions. The German Tenants' Association states landlords are responsible for repairs.
