A Strabane animal trader has been found guilty of breaching livestock regulations.
Terry Millar, of Derg Road, pleaded guilty to a raft of charges and was fined £2,000.
The defendant appeared at Strabane Magistrate's Court last Friday where he was convicted of one charge of failing to provide an adequate supply of suitable food, water and bedding for animals kept in a market overnight.
Millar was also found guilty in relation to charges of failing to keep a livestock register, admitting sheep bearing no eartags into a market, and of permitting sheep under restriction to be moved.
He was also given a conditional discharge for two years in respect of one charge under the Sheep and Goats (Records, Identification and Movement) Order (Northern Ireland 2005).
