A man aged 31, who subjected a woman in Dundee to rape and stalking, has been sentenced to four years in prison.
The trial took place at the Dundee High Court, where the jury found him guilty of two charges.
The court concluded that Cathro, residing in Broughty Ferry, assaulted the woman on several occasions from December 2010 through September 2013.
He also carried out a series of actions causing fear and distress from December 2010 until April 2014.
His conduct involved repeatedly pressing her for sexual encounters, sending numerous text messages and phone calls, and gaining unauthorized access to her Facebook account among other abusive behaviours.
Cathro, who was appearing in court for the first time, was cleared of five additional charges.
The sentence was deferred to the Glasgow High Court, which also ordered that he be placed on the sex offenders register without a time limit.
A lifelong non-harassment order was additionally issued to prevent any future contact or intimidation.
