The man is accused of causing moderate bodily harm, threatening to kill him, as well as illegally restricting the victim’s freedom. The court sentenced him to real imprisonment for three years and four months, as well as probation supervision for one year and six months.
According to the indictment, on one day in November last year, the man, being under the influence of alcohol and angry at his girlfriend, with whom he had a constant intimate relationship, during a mutual conflict with her, pulled the woman by her clothes and hit her intentionally.
Less than a month later, the accused hit the victim woman twice on the head with an ax handle and hit her legs several times, as well as pressed her eyes with his fingers.
The accused verbally threatened the victim to kill her if she reported the violence by the accused man to the police.
The prosecutor of the West Zemgale Prosecutor’s Office is satisfied with the sentence imposed by the court and will not ask the court to prepare a full verdict. The other persons involved in the process can appeal the verdict in the Zemgale Regional Court.
