Man's Tesco wipes mix up leaves him with 'burning pain'

Leon Gleed, 29, was left confused after developing soreness before realising he had been using anti bacterial toilet cleaner wipes. His girlfriend Sadie Williams, 29, picked up Tesco's Active Flushable Toilet Wipes from a Tesco Express store in Risca, south Wales last month.
