A MAN caught on CCTV dumping bags of rubbish and bits of carpet on a street in West Bowling has been ordered to pay almost £1,000 in fines and costs.

Salem Hatam, 41, of Dixon Avenue, was caught dumping the rubbish from a Silver Vauxhall car.

The rubbish consisted of eight bin bags as well as carpet cut offs.

When he was interviewed by Bradford Council enforcement officers, Hatam admitted dumping the rubbish and agreed to pay a Fixed Penalty of £400.

However, the penalty was not paid.

At Bradford Magistrates’ Court, Hatam pleaded guilty to depositing controlled waste on a public highway.

He was also ordered to pay £500 costs and £40 Victim Surcharge.
