Business owner calls neighbourhood 'hell' amid crime concerns

Traders in Hyson Green say the area needs to be made safer. One shopkeeper described the area as 'hell'.

Freydun said: “Safety is the most important thing. I’ve had to defend myself from being stabbed with a knife and now they’re gone [in prison] for 10 years. There’s nothing positive. I have some good guys come in, that's it.”Freydun added: “In 10 years, it’s [Hyson Green] got worse because of the economy. People have problems, and the customers are mostly poor. Getting benefits is now harder and we get people who come in with no jobs.

Raj is originally from India. He added: “Just yesterday, we had a customer take something and the glass on the door has been broken, too.” Aadam Saleem, 22, is a sales assistant at Cutprice Furniture and Carpets. Aadam’s family has been running the store for the past five years but the carpet shop has been on Radford Road for decades.

Inspector Ben Lawrence, who leads the City Central neighbourhood policing team, which covers Hyson Green, said: “We’re currently in a very good place with local crime rates falling at a much higher rate than the national average – but I’m not complacent and we are determined to do even more to see this fall further.
