Can the landlord disconnect the tenant?
Even though the the tenant had no lease, you still need a court order to disconnect. Otherwise it is self help.
The occupant is an unlawfull occupant, so landlord can apply for eviction order.
Even if deemd lawful, in the absence of a lease landlord can give notice.
The demand for payment will be unjustified enrichment as there is no contract so the claim is in delict.
