Judge Colin Burn noted that the defendant had also taken some cocaine that night and he said the photographs of the complainant told their own story.
As part of the sentence, Ashcroft was given a three-year jail term and an indefinite restraining order was imposed, banning him from making any contact with the victim in the future.
