A market trader being sued by Leeds City Council for hanging curtains has blasted “bullies” working for the local authority who he says are making his life a "nightmare".
Kirkgate Market stallholder Narinder Sharma, 69, claims he’s being “targeted” with a series of malicious acts. The curtain and pillowcase seller is being taken to court over hanging his products on the wall by the side of his stall – which the council says is “unfairly” encroaching on the market space.
The case has been adjourned several times. Narinder has accused the council of dragging its feet over the case, branding the thousands spent on the ever mounting legal fees “a nightmare”.
