This month saw two brothers jailed over a shocking attack on a car wash worker who stole chemicals from the business after he claimed he hadn't been paid. He made obscene gestures to CCTV cameras as he fled from Redhill Hand Car wash, in Mansfield Road, Redhill, with five cannisters of the liquid on October 27 last year.
But despite his act of revenge, business owner, Shalow Omer, took the law into to his own hands, recruiting his brother, Shaho Omer, to attack the ex-worker days later. The man was dragged and trapped inside a room at Shalow Omer's other business, Mobile Point phone repairs, in Alfreton Road, Radford, where he was slapped and hit with a plank of wood.
Shalow Omar was jailed for 21 months for assault, causing bodily harm and false imprisonment, while brother Shaho, 23, of Manifold Gardens, The Meadows, was handed 19 months in prison after he admitted identical charges.
