Shock moment brazen Manchester Airport worker WEES on driver's Range Rover in long-stay carpark

The Sun2 days ago

A HOLIDAYMAKER was 'disgusted' when his Tesla's security camera caught an airport's 'meet and greet' parking attendant deliberately urinating up against a customer's brand new Range Rover.
The traveller had just landed in Turkey for a week-long break when he received a motion alert.

He was stunned when he logged in to find a male employee at Manchester's Terminal 1 relieving himself up against another vehicle.
The parking attendant unzips his trousers on May 25 at 12.30am before walking up to the £70,000 white Range Rover - taking a leak against the side bodywork.
The 30-second clip even captures him moving in a side-to-side motion for maximum coverage.
The man said: 'Shortly after arriving in Turkey, I received a motion alert from my vehicle's security system.
'Curious, I checked the footage - initially thinking it was just a staff member moving the cars - but as the video continued, I was absolutely stunned by what I saw.
'It appeared that the worker, rather than simply relieving himself discreetly, urinated all over a customer's car.
'I was completely disgusted. It's one thing if nature calls unexpectedly- but to do that on someone's vehicle? It's vile and completely unacceptable.
'What makes it worse is imagining families returning from their holidays, unknowingly touching contaminated door handles and loading their kids into those cars.
'It's revolting to think about.'
The staff member is in uniform, wearing a high-vis jacket with his hood up.
The shocked holidaymaker, who paid £70 for the week-long parking, added: 'Needless to say, my car will be getting a full valet when I return. I chose the meet and greet service for peace of mind, expecting my vehicle to be safe and returned in the same condition I left it.
'Instead, I've lost all trust in this service.
'I genuinely feel awful for the owner of the car targeted. It was a brand-new 25-plate Range Rover.
'That kind of disrespect is beyond comprehension.
'I won't be using this service again.
'Next time, I'll just book a taxi—at least then I'll know my car is safe and clean at home.'
The incident last week was at Terminal 1, with the car park service run by the airport.
An airport spokesman said: 'The behaviour shown in this video is completely unacceptable and does not represent the conduct we expect from any of our colleagues.
'While it is an isolated incident and not reflective of our wider team, we want to apologise to anyone offended by the incident.
'We have a zero tolerance approach to this kind of behaviour and, with that in mind, it will be dealt with in line with our disciplinary procedures."
Manchester Airport has also been plagued by privately run rogue 'meet and greet' firms in recent years, sparking a police crackdown.
Complaints included reports of cars being stolen, damaged, dumped in fields, and even driven thousands of miles on joy rides.
One firm had crashed a couple's brand new £157k BMW, and another traveller said they returned from an eight-week trip to find 3,000 miles had been added to their mileage clock.
Some companies were moving vehicles to fields or abandoning them on residential streets while owners were on holiday.

Manchester: Thirty police officers sent to deal with bar brawl

Every police officer in a city centre unit was despatched to deal with a fight at a bar, licensing chiefs have been told. The brawl broke out at Eagle, on Deansgate, Manchester, on 4 May, and saw 200 people spill out onto the police had been called the week before, when a neighbour thought they had heard a security guard shout 'gun' during another altercation. On Monday, Manchester City Council's licensing committee lifted the suspension of the bar's licence and imposed conditions. The bar's licensee, Ugochukwu Inyama, apologised for the he said he had felt "ganged up on" because of how many complaints had been made - many of which had not been upheld. The committee heard from neighbours that there was a "wider trend" of antisocial behaviour at the premises, including people urinating in the street and playing loud music from cars parked outside. PC Stuart Hammersley said Greater Manchester Police had sent all of its night-time economy team of 30 officers to the 4 May incident. "For all 30 [police officers] to attend is unusual. It's not a weekly occurrence," he added."All those officers not engaged means they are not across the city centre and other busy areas."Mr Inyama, a 25-year veteran of Manchester's hospitality scene, said the fights were "very regrettable"."GMP have looked at the whole thing and they have made recommendations which we fully agree with," he told the committee."Those two nights we slipped up and we are sorry about it." 'Bottle shows' Deansgate ward councillor Anthony McCaul said he believed Eagle had ignored a condition that said it should promote responsible drinking. He showed pictures taken from the bar's social media accounts showing alcohol being poured from bottles into women's mouths. Licensee Mr Inyama said the images taken showed "bottle shows", and no alcohol was poured into customers' mouths by staff. Mr Inyama admitted he "could see" the image promoted irresponsible behaviour. The committee heard there had been 40 complaints in about 18 months, and officers said they had found no evidence of noise problems. Mr Inyama added: "On May 26, 2025, we were closed and a resident reported an incident that we had music playing and cars parked all over the place. "We had the licensing team visit and look at CCTV and they could see we were closed." Four crimes were recorded at Eagle in the previous 12 months - two phone thefts and two assaults -which PC Hammersley said was "below average" for a town bar. The committee imposed a condition that no bottles could be served, other than wine with meals, and ordered the bar to close earlier at weekends. It must now close at 02:00 GMT on Fridays and Saturdays, and 01:00 on Sundays. Listen to the best of BBC Radio Manchester on Sounds and follow BBC Manchester on Facebook, X, and Instagram.

EXCLUSIVE Man convicted of burning Koran and shouting 'f*** islam' outside Turkish embassy admits he is 'very worried' that he may now end up being killed

A man who was convicted of a public order offence for burning a copy of the Koran outside the Turkish consulate while shouting 'f*** Islam' says he has received 'hundreds' of death threats since his protest and is 'afraid of being killed'. Hamit Coskun, 50, was ordered to pay £240 and a statutory £96 surcharge on Monday after screaming 'Koran is burning' and 'Islam is religion of terrorism' while holding a flaming copy of the religious Islamic text above his head, in a controversial demonstration earlier this year. During his protest - which took place on February 13 in Knightsbridge - he was attacked by a man, who cannot be named for legal reasons, who was allegedly holding a knife. The man then spat at and kicked Mr Coskun. Two days later on February 15 Mr Coskun's home was broken into by two Iraqi men who threatened him with an ashtray and a knife. Following this, Mr Coskun was placed under police protection for two days and was then forced to flee the city he was living in. Since then Mr Coskun has received scores of abusive messages and death threats which have left him fearing for his life. Speaking exclusively to the Daily Mail, Turkish born Mr Coskun, who is half Armenian and half Kurdish, said: 'My social media accounts and phonebook are full of death threats from [people based in] cities like London and Birmingham. Hamit Coskun leaving Westminster Magistrates' Court, central London, where he was sentenced to a £240 fine, with a statutory surcharge of £96 after he was found guilty of a religiously aggravated public order offence of using disorderly behaviour when a Koran was burnt outside the Turkish consulate in London on February 13 'Like everyone else, I am afraid of being killed [and] I am very worried because I know that I may face security risks. 'This is the reality of the "religion" we call Islam. 'It does not respect different beliefs and cultures, it does not recognize the right to life. 'But I am not a coward. 'I am ready to pay the price.' Social media posts sent to Mr Coskun and seen by the Daily Mail include one that states: 'You should sacrifice yourself to Koran. You will die'. Another says: 'Hail to the courageous man who will make your corpse lie down on the ground.' Mr Coskun, a committed atheist, was forced to flee his home country of Turkey two and a half years ago. He is currently seeking asylum in the UK. When asked whether he felt protected in Britain Mr Coskun admitted: 'What really worries and upsets me is the attitude of the police [because] unfortunately, the police don't care. 'After returning from London on February 15, I was attacked by two Iraqi Muslims in Derby. 'Despite being arrested, they were released within a day [so] I had to change my address for security reasons. 'I am not [currently] under police protection and [when] I told them I felt unsafe they said there was nothing they could do.' Earlier this week politicians, including opposition leader Kemi Badenoch, as well as leading free speech campaigners slammed the conviction of Mr Coskun warning that the ruling was a blasphemy law by the back door. Defiant, Mr Coskun has said that he plans to appeal the decision - with the help of the National Secular Society [NSS] and the Free Speech Union [FSU] who are covering his legal fees. He said: 'I am grateful to the NSS and FSU, who have stood by me on this issue and have supported me unconditionally. 'The court ruling is an unjust decision. The ruling will only please and satisfy Islamists. They are trying to clamp down on freedom of expression.' 'I am an activist. I criticize Islam. I think that Islam poses a threat to the whole world. '[While protesting] I remain within democratic measures. 'I do not interfere with anyone. This is my democratic right [and] I will continue my struggle. 'This does not necessarily mean burning the Quran [but] I will use my right to protest wherever Islamists pose a threat. 'I do not intend to harm or disturb anyone. I am trying to raise awareness in society about the concept of Islamic invasion and threat.'

Love Island Sophie Lee's TV star ex ‘gutted and blindsided' she's signed up for show as they have ‘unfinished business'

LOVE Island beauty Sophie Lee's TV star ex has been left devastated after she was revealed in the villa line-up. The 29-year-old motivational speaker will soon make a splash in Majorca and it's all proving tough to take for Ouzy See, who took part in series 10 of the show. 4 A friend of the semi-pro footballer told us: 'Ouzy was really shocked and blindsided to see Sophie had signed up for Love Island. "He was gutted because he feels like there is still unfinished business between the two of them. "While they aren't dating anymore, he thinks she's an amazing girl and they ended on good terms. "It's weird for anyone though knowing your ex is about to go on Love Island and could fall for someone else on TV.' Ouzy, 30, was totally smitten with Sophie back in 2023 at the start of their fledgling romance. He accompanied her to the Beauty Awards where she won Beauty Influencer of the Year. Ouzy told us on the red carpet: "It's going really well," prompting Sophie to chime in: "He's really kind, that's my favourite thing about him." The former villa hunk then gushed: "She's inspirational. We've been dating for a few months." When asked if they were in love, they giggled and replied: "We'll see." Sophie overcame a near-death experience in her early 20s. Ten Years of Love Island The dancer, from Manchester, was performing with flaming props when the freak accident on stage in Chicago left her fighting for her life. The air-con in the venue was too powerful and blasted a fireball back at her, causing her face and chest to 'go up in flames'. Sophie told Fabulous Digital: 'The air-con was too strong so when I blew the fire out it blew back to me. It set me on fire. I just remember being in so much pain, I blacked out for a little bit. It's crazy. 'It happened in front of everyone and I had to get on with it as professionally and quickly as I could. As soon as I got into the ambulance, I was in bits." Sophie spent a month in intensive care in America by herself, while receiving treatment for the burns. 4
