“We know his behaviour has a negative impact on our local communities and businesses and it simply won’t be tolerated.
“Officers in Southampton are committed to tackling those who come into the city centre to commit crime and bring offenders to justice.
“Anyone seen to be breaching Criminal Behaviour Orders can expect to be brought back before a court where they could face a maximum of five years imprisonment.”
Dustokheil will remain subject of the Criminal Behaviour Order upon his release from prison, excluding him from entering areas including Above Bar, Below Bar, High Street, Commercial Road, West Quay, West Quay Retail Park and the city parks.
