A nuisance prostitute has been banned from nearly every phone box in north west London after soliciting on the streets of Brent. Christine Henry (48 years old) was slapped with a two year Anti Social Behaviour Order (ASBO) by Brent Magistrates, on Monday last week. Under the ASBO conditions she is banned from carrying items that could be used to advertise her sexual services, must not go in any public telephone box in Camden, Barnet and Brent and cannot distribute or advertise her telephone number in any public place, or on the internet.

Police officers caught Henry placing advertising cards in a public phone box, in Kilburn High Road, last month. PC Pat Allen said: “The impact of the cards produced by Miss Henry being displayed inside the telephone kiosks in full view of persons of all ages, is detrimental to the community and causes much alarm and distress. This demonstrates that we will take action to improve the quality of life for those who live and work in the area.”
