A 42-year-old man has been locked up for over four years after launching a terrifying campaign of abuse against a woman in Rushden. Mohammed Miah, who has no fixed address, was sentenced to four years and one month in prison at Northampton Crown Court on November 4.
He was also slapped with a five-year restraining order banning any contact with the victim except through professional third parties.
Shocking Abuse in Front of Children
The court heard that between April 21 and June 14 this year, Miah repeatedly assaulted the woman at her home, often in front of her children. On one chilling occasion, he put both hands around her throat, strangling her.
