An asylum seeker who assaulted a female police officer cannot do community service because he can't speak English and needs an interpreter, a court heard. Jordanian national Mustafa Al Mbaidin would need a full-time translator with him if he were to do a period of unpaid work which would raise 'issues' with the health and safety at work laws, his lawyer argued. Instead the 27-year-old was fined £26 for the offence of assaulting an emergency worker which he will pay at a rate of £2 a month. Magistrates heard Al Mbaidin drunkenly pestered female joggers running along Bournemouth seafront in Dorset on May 11 this year.
