A MAN who stole chewing gum from Clydebank’s Asda supermarket has been told to carry out unpaid community work as a punishment.
Mehdi Armonti, 29, stole the gum from the Britannia Way store on November 17 – two weeks after being granted bail at Glasgow Sheriff Court.
At a hearing at Dumbarton Sheriff Court last Friday, Armonti’s solicitor, Phil Lafferty, said the case was one of several accrued by his client in recent months.
Others having resulted in deferred sentences of three and six months for good behaviour and another ending in his being handed a three-month curfew.
Armonti, of Quarrywood Road, Barmulloch, was given six months to do 100 hours unpaid work and was placed under social workers’ supervision until March 2019.
