A Horsforth restaurant has been prosecuted over waste.
Leeds Council's environmental enforcement team brough the proprietors of Golden Bengal UK Ltd, before the city's magistrates' court on Tuesday.
The restaurant at the Woolpack Building, in Low Lane, was fined £250 and the director Abdul Rashid was ordered to pay £1,750 and costs of £1677.40 for failing to produce documents to show commercial waste was being disposed of legally.
The prosecution followed a routine check of the restaurant where enforcement officers found no sign of any commercial waste bins, apart from a barrel containing used cooking oil.
The company had been issued with a £300 fixed penalty notice which they failed to pay, ending in the court action.
