  Only if he was an illegal immigrant or fugitive, otherwise it is between you and the owner.

  The police will tell him to take a hike, fly a kite, settle the matter among yourselves. He can kick you out, you can refuse to go, the police won't take action.

  Or he can ask you to pay him money. The police will ask him sue you himself.

  You can stay till end of month, don't pay this month and let the deposit cover it, and leave.

  The owner must think you are a real stupid idiot to threaten you like that.

  try settle with the owner lah. Cuz they not happy you ninja 1 more person in.

  Dun go police, very troublesome and waste time one, not worth it.

  If you need the place desperately because of whatever reason, maybe just pay the owner $50 to end the problem.

  Its a criminal offence to harbour an illegal immigrant. The property is his, so he will be held responsible for your crime. So to cover his arse, he should report you.

  Must always be carefull of Ah Tiong and Pinoys.

  One or two decent fellas will sign the tenancy agreement, after that you see 20 fellas there.

  The excuse is always the same, they are friends, just for a while only.

  If you are renting the whole unit i dont see a problem. But if owner stays with you, then you gotta ask for permission. Otherwise, you shud be able to resolve the issue with him/her. Did your friend did anything obscene or wrong until it want provoked her/him to call the police?
