An
illegal tyre dumper who received Scotlands first environmental
ASBO last year has found himself in trouble again. This time he
may be headed to prison to atone for his deeds.
On April 23 Joseph Abate has had guilty pleas
lodged in his absence to illegally dumping hundreds of used
car tyres. Abate was charged with disposing of tyres without
a licence at a number of sites in Glasgow area between November
2004 and March 2006.

charges last year. During those court proceedings he was described
as a serial offender who caused “immense environmental
damage.” This time around he faces up to six months in
prison or a £20,000 fine.
