A man who dumped 30 bags of waste near to a bus stop in Cheetham spent a morning under arrest before being ordered to pay £1,150 by magistrates.
Javed Iqbal was taken into custody under warrant on 2 November, having failed to attend a previous hearing scheduled to take place at Manchester Magistrates Court.
Officers working for Manchester City Council discovered the fly-tip on Bury New Road, Cheetham, in September 2016. On investigation, they found evidence linking the offence to Iqbal and his company, Major Brand - a menswear retailer, also based on Bury New Road.
Iqbal, 57, of Chelsfield Grove, Chorlton, failed to attend a court hearing on 24 October and was subsequently taken into custody on 2 November. He pleaded guilty to the offence of allowing commercial waste to escape his control.
