«Breaking News» Vegetarian couple Christoph and Sylvia Hons 'stalked meat-eating neighbours'

A vegetarian sommelier and his wife are accused of stalking their neighbours after they moved out over a row about 'foul' meat smells.

Christoph Hons, 50, who works as a wine expert at Park Chinois in Mayfair, and his wife Sylvia, 45, deny stalking Scott Lawrence and his wife Jessica Parker between January 15 and April 29 last year.

Mr Lawrence and Ms Parker moved out of their house in Twickenham, west London after their neighbours filmed them at home and sat in local cafes, a court was told.

The couple re-located after multiple run-ins with the Honses, who often complained about late-night parties, loud banging, drilling and dog-walking next door.

But the original feud started when the defendants complained of 'foul' meat smells coming into their home.

Tracing the 'rotten meat' smell to a pipe that connected the two homes, Mr Hons called the police, sparking a furious row, Kingston-upon-Thames Crown Court was told.

Both couples ended up filming each other with their mobile phones and Go-Pros as tensions mounted, before the Hons pair and Mr Lawrence were each issued with harassment warnings by the police.

Describing the smell, Mr Hons told the jury: 'Your home is full of this bad smell, in the curtains, in your clothes, all over the place.

'It was very intense, foul meat, rotten meat. I am quite sensitive on taste and smell, it is a big part of my job.

'We called the police every time that happened. Every time it occurred.'

Eventually they installed an insulation system that got rid of the odour, but the arguments continued, the court heard.       

Earlier Ms Parker told the jury: 'They tried to attract our attention to film us. I'd see them out of the corner of my eye.

'I knew they didn't want us to be in the garage area, but it was useful to us. We would throw a ball to the dogs and nobody else minded.

'Eventually they got a 'No Dog Walking' sign put up there.

'We had been exercising our dogs and Mrs Hons went back home to get her moped and drove it at us for half an hour, while filming.

'My heart was pounding, but what is the best thing to do with a bully? We had been subjected to aggression, but when someone is bullying you, do you just scuttle off?'

Their neighbours Scott Lawrence and Jessica Parker moved out of their house in Twickenham, west London (pictured) over the row and set up elsewhere in the capital 

Mrs Hons claims Ms Parker was enjoying the confrontation and 'smiling' because one of her dogs was barking at her, but the complainant says her dog was agitated by the deliberate moped revving.

The defendant recorded the incident, which was played to the jury, who heard Mr Lawrence shout: 'You and your husband are freaks. We know you have eight or nine cameras.'

Mrs Hons claims Jessica told the dog: 'Get her,' and the jury were shown a doorstep confrontation the defendants filmed, while pointing their phone at Mr Lawrence.

He can be heard saying: 'Call the police you voyeuristic p*****. You two have done nothing but harass me for the last six months while I'm walking my dogs.

'The pair of you are f****** idiots.'

Mr Hons told the jury loud weekend parties began taking place in late 2015. 'We could hear the music through the walls up until two or three am.

'I complained, but I found them quite aggressive so reported the noise to their landlord. 

'The parties stopped, but then they started throwing things at the walls and there was loud banging of doors up to midnight.

'There was also six weeks of continuous drilling. You could feel the vibration through the wall. It was getting very annoying.'

Describing the smell, Mr Hons (pictured with his wife Sylvia outside court as he arrived for trial) told the jury: 'Your home is full of this bad smell, in the curtains, in your clothes, all over the place. 'It was very intense, foul meat, rotten meat. I am quite sensitive on taste and smell, it is a big part of my job. 'We called the police every time that happened. Every time it occurred.'

Mr Hons told the jury he and his wife reported his neighbours to Richmond-upon-Thames's Environmental Health department because of the constant noise.

He denied 'laughing and abusing' his neighbours as they walked past, giving them 'the finger' and damaging one of their vehicles.

Mr Hons insisted he would go out of his way to avoid confrontation in the street: 'I would go behind a bush or a car to avoid contact with Mr Lawrence.

'By that stage I was in a kind of fear and anxious about him. My cameras were to monitor and prevent an incident because I did not know how far it would go.

'He once said: 'I'm going to get you, I'm going to slap you.' He was very aggressive.

'I was shocked. We never gave him a reason to do that. I feared for the safety of myself, my wife, my house and my cat.

'It was frustrating that the police really didn't do anything to resolve this situation.'

The trial continues.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
