'UK's worst fare dodger' ignored station ban and last broke the law 2 days ago, court told
Charles Brohiri was banned from going into any Thameslink station as part of his bail conditions - but has been caught without a ticket 30 more times
A man has appeared in court charged with more than 100 counts of travelling without a ticket.
Charles Brohiri, 28, was banned from going into any Thameslink station as part of his bail conditions in April this year – but has been caught without a ticket a further 30 times since then, Westminster Magistrates' Court was told.
He was last caught fare dodging as recently as August 18, prosecutors say.
Brohiri, who is homeless, is facing 113 counts of travelling on a railway without paying.
Train operator Thameslink runs services north-south across London, with some services running as far as Brighton, Luton and Bedford.
Brohiri will appear at the same court on December 16.
District Judge John Zani granted him bail, but amended the wording of the conditions to ban him from getting on any Thameslink train.
"It's very important you take these bail conditions seriously," he told Brohiri, adding: "You don't get on any train without having the money."
