Councillors decided not to grant the new licence to Efrem Gebrekristos to drive for a living at a meeting. Police had objected to Mr Gebrekristos obtaining the licence in light of his criminal record.
A man was refused a licence to drive a private hire car after being convicted of assault when he banged a friends' head against a table in a pub.
A Police Scotland Sergeant told the licensing and regulatory committee that Mr Gebrekristos was not a fit and proper person to hold a licence. An agent representing Mr Gebrekristos told councillors his client had got into an argument that escalated with a friend. He said it "wasn't a random attack on a random individual."
