Mustac Abdulkadir, a former restaurant manager from Leicester has been fined after inspectors found rat droppings, a live mouse and other food safety breaches at Blue Peters Spice restaurant, in Law Street, Belgrave.

The restaurant, now running under different management, was given a zero hygiene rating by Leicester City Council - the lowest possible - following an environmental health inspection in August.

Abdulkadir admitted nine counts of exposing for sale for human consumption food which fails to comply with food safety requirement. Each count was dated August 5 last year.

He was fined £250 for each of the nine charges - £2,250 in total - and also ordered to pay £450 costs and £25 victim surcharge.

A local newspaper reported that through a Gujarati interpreter Abdulkadir (53) said: “I am guilty - there is nothing to say. I had some people as staff who were not very helpful. I am working there part time and have no partnership in the business.”
