Claire Parker 43 of Kexby Lane, Kexby, Lincolnshire was found guilty of letting people use her garage for dog fighting, of possessing 3 dogs for fighting and using them for fighting, attending dog fights and breeding fighting dogs. Her cruel husband John Parker died while in prison on other charges. Mohammed Nasir Farooq 34 of Daniels Road, Bordersly Green, Birmingham was also prosecuted.



Claire Parker was banned for keeping animals for 10 years. She was fined 2,000 pounds in costs and was given 18 weeks in prison.

Mohammed Nasir Farooq was given 22 weeks for dog fighting and had treadmills for training fighting dogs of which he was also found guilty.

A youth who isn't named was also found guilty.

John Parker was also guilty of fighting dogs and died in prison while serving for other offences. Good riddance.

Claire Parker : Kexby Lane, Kexby, Lincolnshire.

Mohammed Nasir Farooq : Daniels Road, Bordersly Green, Birmingham.

The sentences given to these scum is hardly a deterrent. Perhaps the Justice Department would like to show this named guilty pair the error of their cruel ways properly.
