Following his release, he will still remain subject to the Criminal Behaviour Order.

This excludes him from entering areas including Above Bar, Below Bar, High Street, Commercial Road, West Quay, West Quay Retail Park and the city parks.

Sergeant Sal Ferris from the Southampton City Centre team said: “Dustokheil is a persistent offender who has showed no regard for the terms of the Criminal Behaviour Order that excludes him from entering various locations in Southampton.

“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.”
