An accountant sued over Japanese knotweed found in the garden of his former home has labelled the decision to fine him more than £200,000 as a "devastating miscarriage of justice".
Jeremy Henderson, 41, sold his three-bedroom house in south-west London to 30-year-old furniture designer Jonathan Downing in August 2018.
While tidying the garden soon after moving in, the buyer discovered Japanese knotweed canes behind a large St John's wort bush which was growing next to the shed.
