Adrian Vaduva, 53, has been locked up for stalking a woman and threatening to expose a private photo of her. The court heard how his relentless harassment lasted nearly a year, ending with a jury conviction.
Breaking Court Orders and Haunting Victim
Between September 16 and 30, 2025, Vaduva stalked the victim, trailing her from home to work and flooding her with calls and messages. All this happened despite a strict Domestic Violence Protection Order (DVPO) meant to keep him away.
Nottinghamshire Police revealed Vaduva blatantly ignored the court order designed to protect victims by banning contact or visits. The force actively enforces such orders and isn’t afraid to act when they’re broken.
Prison Sentence and Long-Term Restraining Order
On Friday, March 13, Nottingham Crown Court sentenced Vaduva to 11 months behind bars. He also received a five-year restraining order covering the victim and another person linked to the case.
Police Hail Victim’s Bravery
Detective Constable David Passmore said: “Vaduva showed a complete disregard for his Domestic Violence Protection Order and continued his campaign of harassment, causing immense distress to the victim.”
“His repeated unwanted behaviour was totally unacceptable. I praise this woman’s courage for coming forward. Now Vaduva is behind bars, she can start to rebuild her life.”
“Stalking and harassment are serious crimes with devastating impacts. We urge anyone affected to contact us and speak confidentially.”
