Woman given ASBO for singing Gary Glitter songs in the bath

Mother of two, 39-year-old Caroline Bishop has had an Asbo imposed on her after her neighbours complained about the noise.

If she is overheard belting out her favourite Gary Glitter hits again, she could face five years in jail.

Magistrates in Lincoln imposed the bizarre condition after a three-day hearing, despite pleas from Mrs Bishop's lawyers that it was trivialising the use of Asbos.

She admitted singing Gary Glitter songs but told the court: "I want people to know I haven't done anything wrong. We are being victimised."
