Ziga must also leave a premises on area when asked by someone who has the authority to do so.

The order also prevents him from entering The Hive, Worcester Cathedral and its grounds and St George’s Church, Sansome Place.

PC Catherine Broadfield said the order placed on Ziga was granted after a series of incidents including persistent begging, anti-social behaviour and the two burglaries.

Members of the public are encouraged to report any breaches of the orders to West Mercia Police on 101.
