A Dundee man is to stand trial accused of "recklessly producing

So, a 12V generator, car battery and an inverter is a "dangerous
transformer assembly" and clearly illegal. I must remember that, since I
have one in my car.

Perhaps storing cans of petrol in a 14th floor flat is a significant
detail?
I was given the keys to a top floor flat because I needed to get into
the loft to fix the TV system for the building. The council were holding
the keys because the tenant was doing a short stretch elsewhere. In the
loft I found a very large number of 5 litre plastic containers. There
was a smell of petrol. The council had to get the fire brigade to empty
the loft. The reason for the man to store the petrol remains unknown to me.
