A restaurant owner yesterday branded the justice system a 'joke' after he was locked up for seizing two teenage yobs who broke into his beer cellar. Sal Miah spent five hours in a police cell after he chased down the hoodies and held them in the bar while his staff dialled 999.
The married father-of-five assumed police would commend him for catching the young criminals.

Rule of law rests upon an underlying moral code or else it will go seriously awry. Law separate from morality becomes incoherent.
When will the people of the UK stop putting up with this crap?
Not for a long time.
Sweet fluffy Lord!
I’m sure there is plenty of comparable idiocy in the US. Like the guy in New York who shot a home invader practically at his daughter’s door and ended up in jail for gun charges.
Thank you founding fathers of 1776
Yeah, let's blame the Granddad for trying to protect his livelihood; he should have offered to hold the door open for the kids as they stole his goods < /saracasm>
Personally, I'm a big fan of the 9mm solution; 2 to the head, and 1 to the chest.
If this just happened once, it could be a fluke. But you read story after story about this kind of thing happening in England. I think it first came to my attention when that guy was thrown into jail for murder after defending his home from robbers who had broken in several times before and had beaten him up.
Protecting yourself, your family, your house, is just not allowed. And the police have no interest in protecting you either.
Ultimately, Britain is a democracy and this craziness is a result of those they've elected into power.
These stories have been common as posted from the UK papers.
It is basically against the law to interfere with criminals in their course of their duties.
Socialists and Politically Corrupt societies get the government they deserve!
A once great country torn asunder by political correctness.
Granddad Gurmail Singh was beaten to death with a hammer as he tried to defend his shop from four teenage hoodies stealing cigarettes and chocolate last month.
Sure stand by and let the hoodies take all of your possessions. When the police finally get there they can take your statement and try finding the yoots responsible in a week or two.
The Brits need to come back to reality before it is too late. Armed defense of your person and your property is a natural God given right. .
If a few hoodies lose their lives once in a while whilst trying to take another man’s property unlawfully perhaps their parents will try a bit harder to keep them home at night and perhaps the yoots will think a second time before committing unlawful acts.
What an awful story made worse by the hooligans killing his grandfather
Oddly enough, this is the same tactic British police use themselves!
They will take your statement. That's about it.
The uncle of one of the boys even came to restaurant making threats that he was going to smash it up and burn it down.'But when I reported that the police said they couldn't find him.'
Remember that when you are citing quotations from the original article, the HTML code for pub hooligans in the UK is < blokequote >...
