Police also told the public not to hand money to beggars
Nottinghamshire Police are using banning orders to prevent the 'prolific shoplifters' and drug addicts from entering into Nottingham City Centre.
Sergeant Jonathan Pothecary, from Nottinghamshire Police, said: “If you limit where someone can go by denying them access to their known associates and the shops and facilities in the city centre, then there criminal activity is going to be severely disrupted. “We have had some good results where some of our known offenders have accessed support for their drug addiction because the alternative is you can no longer come into the city centre.”
“This, in turn, lines the pockets of those making money from drug dealing and funds the sale of mamba, crack cocaine and heroin.
