A Romford man has been jailed for seven months after threatening to kill a woman in a domestic incident that took place earlier this year.
Christopher Keeble, 47, of Lower Bedfords Road, appeared before Barkingside Magistrates’ Court on February 19, three days after the offence, where he pleaded guilty to making threats to kill and criminal damage.
In addition to the prison term, the court issued a four-year restraining order, prohibiting Keeble from having any contact with the victim.
