dailyrecord.co.uk:

A man has denied being in charge of an XL bully which caused injuries to an 11-year-old girl and two men. Farhat Ajaz, 61, is alleged to have been the owner or person in charge of a dangerously out of control dog, named Tyson, in the Bordesley Green area of Birmingham on September 9 last year.

Ajaz, of Bordesley Close, Birmingham, was granted conditional bail at the city’s Magistrates’ Court on Monday, and ordered to appear before a Crown Court judge next month.

District Judge David Wain was told that Ajaz, who pleaded not guilty to three counts of being in charge of a “dangerously out of control” dog which caused injury, did not attend court last week because he was unwell and had problems with his breathing.The identity of the 11-year-old girl, who suffered shoulder and arm injuries and spent a night in hospital, is protected by a court order.Two men also suffered injuries in the incident.Get the latest news sent straight to your messages by joining our WhatsApp community today.You'll receive daily updates on breaking news as well as the top headlines across Scotland.No one will be able to see who is signed up and no one can send messages except the Daily Record team.All you have to do is click here if you're on mobile, select 'Join Community' and you're in!If you're on a desktop, simply scan the QR code above with your phone and click 'Join Community'.We also treat our community members to special offers, promotions, and adverts from us and our partners.
