THE OLDER brother of Crystal Palace play-off hero Wilfried Zaha is facing eviction due to his alleged anti-social behaviour.
Serge Zaha was not at home this morning when police and council officers served a closure notice on his council flat in Castle Hill Avenue, New Addington.
Neighbours said the 31-year-old had moved in about four months ago and problems included his leaving rubbish around and unpredictable, sometimes violent, behaviour.
One neighbour, who did not wish to be named, said: "It was like something out of a Western: He came out and everyone else went in because you could not trust what he was going to do."
Another said: "It's come to the point where neighbours won't even let their kids play in the courtyard."
Magistrates are due to consider whether to grant the council a closure order tomorrow (Tuesday).
Serge Zaha will be sentenced on June 26 for an unconnected theft and criminal damage.
He pleaded guilty earlier this year to stealing a Blackberry mobile phone from Michael Kelly at Boots in the Whitgift Centre on December 7 last year.
The criminal damage charge was for destroying a copy of the police Code of Practice, valued at £10, while at the custody centre in Windmill Road on March 22.
