Yes, if a landlord illegally disconnects services such as water or electricity, the tenant can file a claim for compensation at the RDSC. The tenant must support their claim with official reports, such as those from the police, proving the disturbance. The tribunal has the power to award damages for any loss sustained by the tenant due to the landlord�s breach of their fundamental obligation to provide a usable property. This provides a strong judicial deterrent against landlord harassment.
