Maybe he could track them down (on the hush-hush) and return the favor if they have a car that just "happened" to get something in it's gas tank, or some sort of "super" adhesive somehow gets into the door locks.
I know, retaliation isn't the answer, but it's a lot faster, cheaper and more satisfactory than any legal recourse.

I feel for the landlord, particularly if he has been a decent one.
I rented an apartment in Everett years ago, and the upstairs tenents (they couldn't verify just how many) had "built" walls to create individual rooms for each person, they cut holes between these rooms and had phone lines installed for each person.
When they left, it took the phone company months to fix the phone line for that apartment.
The owners were shocked at the conditions they created.
Besides the holes in the walls, they also erected a shrine with animal bones in one room.

This was back in the early 90's, so it didn't strike me as odd, but in hindsight, it struke me that since they were all middle-eastern men, and they ALWAYS kept the shades drawn and would peek out whenever I left or someone came by, that who knows what they were truly up to?
