CWJ argued that strangulation had been trivialised within the criminal justice system, despite being terrifying for the victim.
Cases with minor injuries such as red marks were previously charged as common assault, she said, while cases which left no visible injuries were not charged at all."This case reported by Leicestershire Police would most probably have been prosecuted before the new law was introduced, given that there were pools of blood and a glass bottle that was used in the assault," she said.
For the offence of inflicting grievous bodily harm he was given 22 months' imprisonment, suspended for two years. "She suffered a violent and terrifying attack and has not only been left with physical scars from that night but mental and emotional trauma which will take much longer to heal.
