Ah more benefits of Multiculturalism!

Jaswinder Singh carried on cooking in a fly-infested prep room at Pappu Sweet Centre & Catering despite the sudden death of one of his workers.
The 45-year-old was banned from working with food again at Wolverhampton Magistrates Court yesterday. (Like he will take any notice of that!)

District Judge Martin Brown said: "The facts in this case are extraordinarily serious, they are about as grave as one might get in such a case."
The catalogue of horrors at the Cannock Road business also included staff smoking and spitting on the floor; (This happen is all Asian run kitchens) a rodent infestation with a dead rat found under a pan in the kitchen; refrigerators running at more than 68F (20OC); mouldy food; and filthy conditions.
Singh, who lives in Prosser Street, Park Village, was banned from managing any food business in the future and ordered to pay £3,861 in fines and costs.

He was caught cooking next to the dead worker in August by a police officer investigating the employee's sudden death. The Pc was so disgusted, he immediately closed the premises.
Despite "extraordinarily serious" findings at Pappu Sweet Centre & Catering, Cannock Road, Wolverhampton, boss Jaswinder Singh told the city's magistrates court he should be get "one last chance".

Speaking through an interpreter, the 45-year-old said: "I am sorry for this, but I have spent £2,000 repairing it. I should be given one last chance, I would do whatever they told me to."
District Judge Martin Brown said: "This is extremely serious, the initial findings included dead vermin, rotting food, quite disgusting and horrendous conditions and the rather unpleasant details of the findings of the Pc in August. This all says to me unequivocally that you are not a fit person to be preparing food for business. I have effectively taken away your business."
Singh, unrepresented in court, has owned the business since 1996. He was also fined £2,000 for poor hygiene in 2001. He yesterday admitted 12 food hygiene charges – two of failing to have procedures to control pests.

Others were: intentionally obstructing environmental health officers, putting unsafe food on the market unfit for human consumption, failing to store high-risk food at correct temperature, three of failing to comply with hygiene improvement notices, two of contravening food hygiene regulations and two of contravention of provisions.
Singh got a Hygiene Prohibition Order, banning him from managing any food business.

And he will be back in business in days, what a fucking joke!
