A 'cruel' man who put strong glue
on a nut feeder and tree branch so he could catch garden birds to keep in his
home has avoided jail.
Julius Gadzor, of Gravesend,
Kent, covered the feeder with rat glue before showing off the wild finches in
cages in his home.
The 39-year-old was charged with
the unusual crimes of possessing wild birds, using bird lime and possessing
items used for trapping birds after an investigation by Kent Police and the
RSPCA.
Julian Gadzor was prosecuted
after using strong glue to catch wild birds for his home
Photos from his Facebook show the
many cages, some tiny, which he used to house the birds
Gadzor's Facebook page, which
claims he went to school in Slovakia, shows he was not afraid of showing off
the wild finches and other colourful garden birds he caught.
In one photo, he wrote: 'My wall
hahaha', next to the picture of 12 birds in eight cages. It is unclear however
whether the birds pictured are those he trapped.
Another photo shows a greenfinch,
common in many British gardens, in a cage.
Police today released photos of
the branch and feeder which Gadzor had put glue on to catch the birds.
Gadzor was given a 28-day curfew
order when he appeared at Medway Magistrates' Court last Monday, and also
ordered to pay £300 in costs and a £85 victim surcharge.
