A jailed robber who targeted his victims around the North Circular Road area has been banned from entering the borough when he released from prison.
The courts have slapped a seven year Asbo on Gary Evans, which not only bars him from Brent but also prohibits him from mingling with fellow robbers.
Brent Police sought further action after Evans was jailed for three years for three robberies in Neasden and Stonebridge.
With a partner in crime, the pair would approach their male victims and threatened them with violence if they did not hand over their valuables.
Both men often hid their identities by wearing dark hooded tops and scarves or handkerchiefs across their faces.
