A JEALOUS and cruel boyfriend poured hot coffee over his partner during a campaign of abuse.
Steven Halliday, 45, originally from Oldham, assaulted Shameem Younis over a period of 13 months, including another attack which saw him bang her head into a shop window.
He was jailed for 20 months at Mold Crown Court in North Wales for his crimes between July 2021 and August 2022. A judge said the offences had had a 'long-term' and 'serious impact' on his victim, and that he had shown no remorse for his behaviour.
Prosecutor Laura Knightly told how the couple had been in a relationship from July 2021 which was 'brilliant' for the first six months. But Halliday became controlling and coercive.
She said he was jealous of male customers at Ms Younis's floristry business and called her names including 'fat b**** and 'scruffy c*** Ms Knightly described a series of assaults by Halliday, of Goats Shore, Oldham, in the following months.
In one incident the couple went to Anglesey where the defendant was buying a caravan on May 14, 2022. They went for a meal and came back to the caravan. But the defendant pushed his partner against a cooker and she fell to the floor in pain. By this time she felt he relationship was over.
