A MAN has been jailed after carrying out a ânasty assaultâ in Lerwick which briefly left his victim unconscious.
Marcin Olejniczak, whose address was given as Grampian Prison, appeared from custody at Lerwick Sheriff Court on Thursday to admit assaulting his partner on 23 April and 24 September last year.
In the first incident he struck her on the head, and in the second he repeatedly struck her on the head, rendering her unconscious, with both assaults causing injury.

The later offence was committed while the 42-year-old was on bail.
Procurator fiscal Duncan Mackenzie told the court that the coupleâs relationship was on-off and âextremely volatile due to both having a chronic dependence on alcoholâ.
