Hunt supporters admit theft
By Gazette Reporter


A pair of hunt supporters have been ordered to pay Ł350 to a saboteur
after admitting stealing her camera.

Malcolm Scobie, 41, and David Gibbons, 52, had been charged with
robbing Melanie Bates during the incident on Wednesday October 5,
2005.

But on the day of trial at Swindon crown court the two men pleaded
guilty to the lesser charge of theft.

And Judge Douglas Field imposed one year conditional discharges on the
men and ordered they each pay Ł175 compensation to the owner of the
camera.

Miss Bates, from Reading, Berks, was using her camera to get footage
of the Avon Vale hunt near Melksham.

She claimed that Scobie, of Spye Park, Lacock and Gibbons, of Padfield
Gardens, Melksham, had robbed her of the device.

Video footage from other anti hunt activists was used in the
prosecution against the two men.

But the robbery charges were dropped when the two men admitted the
theft of the camera.
