Hanley minicab driver facing ban for picking up undercover cops


Minicab driver Iftab Hussain could lose his licence for six months after he accepted a fare on the street – contrary to his licence.

The 26-year-old was caught after undercover police officers posed as customers on Trinity Street, Hanley.

Now Hussain, of Gilman Street in Hanley, has been fined £350 and given eight penalty points for driving without insurance and driving a vehicle that is not licensed as a public hackney carriage, after he was convicted in his absence.

As he already has four points, the endorsement means Hussain will lose his licence for six months.
