An Indian restaurant owner from Warwickshire has been fined £1,600 and had his van confiscated, after being found to be dumping waste products over 20 miles away in a Birmingham street.
Suba Miha, owner of the Cardamom restaurant in Swan Street, Alcester, was caught during an undercover operation by Birmingham City Council officials. He was found to be regularly driving to Westley Street in the Nechells area of Birmingham, to get rid of unwanted food plus ghee and oil.
Mark Croxford, head of district services at the council said, "It beggars belief that someone would go out of their way to drive into the city to dump food waste. The message is clear, don't dump your rubbish in Birmingham, we will catch you and you will pay a heavy price." |

A Leicestershire man who is obsessed with crisps, eating a different flavour for breakfast, lunch and dinner, has changed his name by deed poll - to Mr. Monster Munch.
Chris Hunt, a plumber from Evington, starts the day with packet of pickled onion, and continues throughout the day. He is so obsessed with the corn snack that he has even devised recipes to include Monster Munch in rice and pasta dishes.
The 26-year-old finally changed his name after being dared to by friends. Mr. Munch, or Monster to his pals, said, ''I just can't get enough of them. I love all the flavours," He added that he was not worried about overeating as he runs five miles a day and works out in the gym three times a week.
