Sentencing for man who dodged 113 train tickets delayed
Prolific rail fare dodger Charles Brohiri, caught 113 times without a train ticket, had his sentencing delayed due to concerns over the legal process. Despite owing over £30,000 in penalty fares, Brohiri was granted bail, continuing to commit offenses. The judge delayed the sentencing until December over the use of lay prosecutors after a warning from the Department for Transport about the legality of non-lawyers prosecuting in fare evasion cases. This case sheds light on how rail companies pursue fare evaders and prosecute passengers.
