Dune coon sprays shops with his faeces
Man guilty of spraying own faeces in English shops
An Algerian chemist has been found guilty of spraying English shops with a vile-smelling cocktail of his own faeces and urine.
Sahnoun Daifallah, 42, blasted the shelves in two stores with litres of the concoction, squirted it in a pub and drenched the children's literature section in a bookstore.
A jury at Bristol Crown Court found him guilty on four counts of contaminating goods in Gloucestershire, south-west England, on May 14 and 16 last year.
He was also found guilty of having an offensive weapon, namely a catapult with marbles.
Daifallah will be sentenced once psychiatric reports have been prepared. The industrial chemist
ry graduate is likely to be deported.
He first aroused suspicions in a pub where he asked the barmaid how much it would cost to rape her, before leaving a trail of stench behind him.
Daifallah then hit a bookstore where he drenched a toilet in the brown substance and soaked 38 bookshelves, wrecking 706 books, mostly in the children's section.
His technique was to fill a 1.5-litre weed killer spray container with the mixture and hide it in a laptop computer bag modified to allow the nozzle to stick out.
Two days later, a shopper in a Tesco supermarket saw him blast the frozen food section with a jet of brown fluid, and a staff member saw him spray the wine bottles, soaking the shelves.
An employee then spotted him acting strangely in the wine section of a Morrisons store and gagged at the stench.
Both stores were shut for cleaning two days, costing thousands of pounds in lost business.
Police caught Daifallah on security cameras. At his house, the
y found a stockpile of bottles of the mixture and bagged-up faeces marked with the names of cities in the region.
Daifallah claimed someone else was responsible for the spraying.
