A couple of months after Pirelli moved in, Caverhill headed off to examine the work and she says she discovered the whole kitchen and washroom had been gutted. All the entryways inside had been evacuated and the carpet of the expert pad had been painted dark, she says.

Be that as it may Caverhill rapidly studied she had much greater issues.

She says she uncovered the locks had been altered and pounded on the entryway.

"I said: 'How come the key doesn't work?' He said: 'I altered the locks.' He said: 'It's not your home.'"

A dark Chevrolet Yukon with tinted windows was stopped in front. A decal on the back window said "No Weapons. No Agents. No Foreign Weapons inside 3 metres of a Diplomat of a Foreign Nation."

Pirelli did react to a message solicit with a cautioning sent both electronically and in a letter conveyed by dispatch.

The cautioning goes onto guarantee trademarks on the name "Andreas Pirelli" and "The First Nations Sovran Embassy of Earth" and says distributed them "is an encroachment of our copyrights, and are liable to trespass of our particular property."

It cautions the development is prone to develop, fuelled by the later monetary downturn and the prominence of workshops being held the nation over.

However a Freemen-on-the-Land part in B.C. said that prior this month that roughness is not upheld and has no spot in the development.
