 A WOODLEY man who resisted arrest has been fined £777 and ordered pay £77 to victim services.

Jasbir Singh, 51 and from Colemansmoor Road, committed the offence on April 28 last year in Woodley.

He had pleaded not guilty, but changed this to guilty when he appeared at Reading Magistrates Court on March 25.

He must pay £693 costs, but no order for compensation was made as the injury inflicted during the resistance was not considered to be serious.

Singh may pay at a rate of £20 per month.
