A SQUATTER who cobbled together a ramshackle home on the side of a railway is on the verge of losing everything after the council warned he faces eviction. Defiant Leo Fieran, 54, has lived undisturbed on a tiny plot owned by the local council for a whopping 18-years. But ever since applying to the Land Registry to get the plot in Kings Cross, London, under his name , he could be booted out - but has vowed to "go to prison" if it means he can protect his squat. The Romanian - who insists "this land is mine" under a specific squatting law - arrived in the UK in 2004 and staked his claim next to the tracks. Since then he says he has "transformed" the land on Camley Road to make it his own, and he even has plans to add a garden and throw up a dwelling . Despite this, a court ruled on May 24 that Leo has no right to reside at the 35m x 15m plot through a possession order which was granted to Camden Council who own the land.
