Rights battle on farmer's strays may be pig of a case for jury
UK - A farmer who was given an antisocial behaviour order (ASBO) after his pigs repeatedly broke into neighbouring fields proclaimed his innocence yesterday and put his fate in the hands of a jury.
Brian Hagan, 62, who keeps a farm in Briston, north Norfolk, pleaded not guilty to the charge of breaching the order when he appeared at King’s Lynn Magistrates’ Court and asked for the matter to be dealt with in the Crown Court.
