A landlord has been ordered to pay more than £1,000 after his building waste was found dumped amongst ancient woodland in May.
Shahzad Khan from Walthamstow was sentenced on Thursday (December 10) after bags of waste were flytipped deep in Epping Forest, in Lincolns Lane and Mount Pleasant, Loughton.
Appearing at Chelmsford Magistrates Court, he was ordered to pay £405 to the City of London Corporation (CoL) – which manages the forest and brought the prosecution – £145 court costs, a £42 victim surcharge and a £420 fine.
Khan, a commercial landlord, had employed contractors to work on one of his properties.
