Woman, 50, caught on camera throwing rubbish bags over her back wall and into an alley behind
Shameless Rahimo Mahamud, 50, was fined £560 for fly-tipping after an angry neighbour set up a camera to catch her in the act
THIS is the shocking moment a woman was caught hurling bags of rubbish over her back wall and into an alley behind her house.
Cops arrested shameless Rahimo Mahamud, 50, after an angry neighbour set up a camera to catch her fly tipping.
An investigation was launched by Manchester City Council - but she brazenly refused to talk to their waste management department.
After pleading guilty to fly tipping at Manchester Magistrates court, she was fined £560 and ordered to pay £125 in costs.
Just days later a rogue waste collector was fined £620 for dumping a fridge and several bags of rubbish in South Manchester.
The fridge was traced to a South Manchester man who told investigators that he paid "a man with a van" to dispose of the waste.
William O'Donnell, 54, was found to be the registered owner of the van, and soon admitted lending it to a pal for fly-tipping.
He admitted that his mate did not own a licence to transport and dispose of waste.
O'Donnell, 54, was fined £140, plus £450 costs and a victim surcharge of £30.
