The former manager of rock band The Stone Roses has been hit with a restraining order after harassing his neighbours. Gareth Evans, 76, was told to stay away from Bella and Joaquin Plana-Oliveira after being sentenced at Caernarfon Magistrates yesterday (Monday, September 12).
Evans, who looked after the hit Manchester group fronted by Ian Brown in the early '90s, was also instructed by magistrates to carry out 120 hours of unpaid work for his treatment of the couple at their home in Trearddur Bay, Anglesey. The pair had accused him of a string of incidents, including opening their bin at 4.45am, looking like he was taking photos of their boat, hot tub and picnic table with his iPad, spraying water on their front door and bouncing a rugby ball which hit their car.
Evans, of Ty'r Enfys, Lon Isallt, had been found guilty by the same court earlier this month of repeatedly breaching a community protection notice from October 2021, prohibiting him from causing the couple alarm or distress. It was a charge he denied, along with that of harassment.
