A man who attacked his partner in a fit of rage has been jailed.

Imran Ali, 40, kicked and punched his partner, a woman in her 30s, at the back of Pak Foods and Iceland in Lincoln Road, Peterborough, at about 4.10pm on 11 April.

A witness followed the pair to a house in Windmill Street and officers met the victim there.

She told them she had fallen off her bike and no one had assaulted her.

Ali was also at the house and the officers arrested him but he ran off, eventually being re-arrested in Lincoln Road the following day.

The victim had no visible injuries.

On Wednesday (21 May), at Peterborough Crown Court, Ali, of no fixed address, was jailed for 15 months having pleaded guilty to escaping from lawful custody and assault.

Ali also breached a suspended sentence.

DC John Pentney said: “This was a disgusting and violent assault by Ali and I hope he uses his time in jail to reflect on his actions.

“Dealing with domestic abuse is a force priority and we will do what we can to put offenders, such as Ali, before the courts.”
