A JILTED lover who apparently sent his estranged girlfriend messages and even gifts despite a protection order preventing contact went on to assault her.
The 48-year-old man, who cannot be named, went before Ipswich Magistrates Court for sentence and appeared from jail via video-link.
He pleaded guilty to six charges of contravening domestic violence protection orders; and assaults causing bodily harm â domestic violence offence.
It was an open court but no agreed facts of the police prosecution case were read onto the public record.
Prosecutor Sergeant Nicholas Turnbull said the police sought a head sentence of between 12 and 15 months for the aggravated breaches of the protection order, and nine months for the assault causing bodily harm.
