Skirts-ban man, 60, 'breached Asbo by bending over'

A man banned from wearing skirts at certain times breached his Asbo by deliberately bending over in front of his neighbours, a court heard today.

Peter Trigger is banned from wearing a skirt or showing bare legs on a school day between 8.30am and 10am and 2.45pm and 4pm.

The 60-year-old, from Farndon Close, Northampton, was given an anti-social behaviour order in December 2008 which also forbids him from behaving in a manner which causes or is likely to cause harassment, alarm or distress to others.

Today Northampton Magistrates' Court heard that he breached the terms of his Asbo by allegedly upsetting his neighbours - deliberately bending over in front of them early in the morning on December 16 last year.

Trigger previously faced three charges of breaching the order but two have since been discontinued.
