Just The Bare Truth, If You Will

Man seeking "cheap thrill" strips to interview a 25-year-old woman in London.
Akbar, a father of one, escaped jail after a court heard that the incident had had a catastrophic effect on his life. The police said he had been sacked, his girlfriend had left him and his friends had deserted him.
Italics mine. Note the italicised part. Obviously the job was boring and not providing him any thrills, and the same goes for the girlfriend and friends. So, he should have been doing the resigning, leaving and deserting not they.

Or maybe they just did not provide "cheap" thrills. Maybe he was a one for the sleazy side of things.
