DARLINGTON THUG PUNCHED PARTNER AS SHE PLEADED 'PLEASE LET ME GO'
A thug who rained down punches on his partner as she pleaded "please let me go" has walked free from court.
Newton Aycliffe Magistrates’ Court heard Yasser Younis delivered a flurry of punches to the woman leaving her with a bloodied nose.
The 48-year-old was arrested when police entered the Darlington home at around 11pm on February 15.
Michael Embleton, prosecuting, said: “The police could hear the woman shouting ‘please Yasser let me go’, so they entered the address.
From looking at the situation, they could see that the woman had been injured and they arrested the defendant for assault.
“The complainant told the police that he has assaulted her, he told her to get dressed and get out while he has continued to hit her.” Mr Embleton said the victim suffered a bloodied nose and other injuries but had not co-operated with the police during their investigation.
The court heard how the defendant has 13 previous convictions for 22 offences but none of them were related to violence.
Younis, of Russell Street, Stockton, but previously from Darlington, pleaded guilty to assault by beating.
Neil Douglas, mitigating, said his client had pleaded guilty at the earliest opportunity and was ashamed of his actions that night.
He said: “He could have chanced his luck with the court when his partner didn’t make a statement but he was having none of that as he knows that what he did was wrong – he is totally ashamed of his actions.
“The best way to follow that up was to enter an early guilty plea.” Colling Morris, the chairman of the magistrates’ bench, sentenced Younis to a 12-month community order with 27 rehabilitation activity requirement days and 100 hours of unpaid work attached.
“Hopefully, this is a one off and you have shown remorse,” he said.
“We all saw how you have reacted during the hearing, so hopefully, this won’t happen again.” Younis was ordered to pay £199 towards court costs.
