It would be a poor tenancy agreement if it didn't. Perhaps she should look into that. If there was rotting food in the flat surely that would have been a health and safety issue?

Also, it's an interesting point about if he was still claiming housing benefit whilst in jail and if not who was paying the rent? He could find himself on dodgy ground if claiming benefits he wasn't entitled to due to being in jail. This might just come back to bite him. I can't help feeling that I hope it does.
