"The court was told Brohiri continued his campaign of fare dodging after being banned last April from entering Thameslink stations as part of his bail conditions. In August, a judge drew up a bail condition to specifically ban Brohiri from getting on to a Thameslink train, telling him: "It's very important you take these bail conditions seriously - you don't get on any train without having the money.""
"In addition, Brohiri is accused of failing to pay fines worth 48,682 from separate prosecutions brought through the courts between August 2019 and April 2025. Judge Tempia adjourned sentencing until February 11 so that a pre-sentence report can be drawn up on Brohiri. According to court documents, Brohiri could be told to pay back all the unpaid fares, totalling 3,266, as well as the cost of 15,120 of bringing the 112 prosecutions."
