AN ALGERIAN man arrested after allegedly spraying a mixture of 'urine, faeces and domestic products' over food in two supermarkets last Friday was remanded in custody today to await committal to crown court.
Sahnoun Daifallah, 42, of Bibury road, White City, Gloucester, is also accused of two similar attacks on earlier dates in a bookshop and a pub in the Cotswolds.
Daifallah, who represented himself at Cheltenham Magistrate's Court this morning, admitted being at the locations involved but denied being responsible for the spray attacks.
He indicated he would be pleading not guilty to four charges of contaminating food or books - two on May 14 at Cirencester and Birdlip, and two more at supermarkets in Quedgeley and Abbeydale, Gloucester, on May 16.
Prosecutor Liz Thomas said that because the total damage allegedly done by Daifallah was more than £10,000 pounds, the magistrates' sentencing powers were not great enough to deal with the case and it should be sent to crown court for trial.
Ms Thomas alleged that Daifallah's first offence was at the Air Balloon Public House at Birdlip.
"He had a rather odd conversation with a member of the bar staff asking how much it would cost to kiss her and then how much it would cost to rape her," alleged the prosecutor.
"This caused her a great deal of upset.
"As she was serving him she became aware of a very strong unpleasant smell in the area."
On the same day, Ms Thomas continued, Daifallah allegedly went into Waterstone's Bookshop in Cirencester.
"He asked to use the toilet and stayed there 15 minutes," she said. "Then browsed in the children's book section and staff became aware of a strong smell coming from him and in the store.
"At first staff thought it was the air conditioning so left it till the next day.
"When they opened the store the next day they saw that on the books where he was browsing there was a brown very smelly unpleasant substance.
"The store had to be closed for two hours while staff threw out 706 books, at a loss of almost £3,000 pounds."
Two days later at about 10.15am Daifallah was seen at Tescos at Quedgeley, the prosecutor added.
"A Mrs Harris was doing her shopping saw him with a shoulder bag and he was squirting fluid from the bag towards the items on display," Ms Thomas "She became aware of the smell of urine around the store."
Two members of staff were aware of a vapour and fine mist coming from his right hand as he was standing next to a different display of food. They saw a brown substance on the bottles in the wine aisle, she said.
Forensic tests had not been completed yet, Ms Thomas said but Tescos own test indicated a combination of urine, faeces and domestic products were involved.
Daifallah was finally accused of being involved in a similar incident at Morrisons in Abbeydale, Ms Thomas said.
Both supermarkets were closed on Friday and Saturday as a result of the incident and had to be cleaned and restocked at a cost of hundreds of thousands of pounds, Ms Thomas said.
Ms Thomas said Daifallah's motive for the alleged incidents was still unclear but he was arrested at his car shortly after police were called to Morrisons.
While at the police station he was searched and the police found him cooperative.
After an officer thanked him for his cooperation, he replied "You're dong your job and I'm doing mine," she said.
In court todya Daifallah offered no argument against being remanded in custody.
Magistrates agreed that the case should be adjourned to Stroud Magistrates court on May 28 when Daifallah will appear via video link from jail for the case to be committed to Gloucester Crown Court for trial.

Hey Eurofags!
Enjoy your muslims!
:D
My God! Those muslim people are sub-humans...who would even think of doing that to the generous and gracious countrymen who have opened their doors to these vermin? Who would even think of allowing another day to pass before sending these scum of the earth back to coutries they crawled out from under the rocks from, to spoil your pristine countries?
Don't tell me this guy is an anomaly either, I've read about three such incidents recently and those are just the ones that have been caught!
If you let muslims remain in your countries, maybe that harsh assessment of you by "Anonymous" is accurate. Your liberal politicians look the other way and ignore this type of crime, the muslim rapes of your local girls, and their "dishonor murders." When are you going to hold your liberal politicians accountable for the tremendous rise of your crime rates caused by your muslim immigrants? They wouldn't there victimizing you as they are today if you hadn't elected all those multi-culturist liberals...it's time for you to retire them and replace them with Conservatives, as Italy has just done!
That's the most disgusting thing I ever heard. Do these barbaric neanderthals take lessons in how to disgust people?
Deport them back to their Muslim countries so they can be happy amongst other barbarians. They don't belong in civilized society until they have become civilized themselves. They are still living in the 7th Century...they have about 14 centuries to go to catch up.
Once we are off their oil (and the writing is on the wall and they know it), they are going to be in a world of hurt. They can't eat their sand and oil...and let's face it, that's all they have over there of any value.
That's why they are testing the spineless & appeasing Euros now; making demands, threatening and spreading terror and fear....to see if you are weak enough yet for a takeover. Because once the source of their wealth is gone....they are planning on taking YOURS. And apparently YOU ARE!
People you need to make your own opinions of this His religion is irrelivant..he commited a crime justlike white people,black,people and every other ethnic diveristy. So concentrate on the man..not his heritage you dimwitted fools.
p.s im white.
