Shetland man fined £400 for aggressive behaviour towards partner
ByReporter
A Shetland man who acted aggressively towards his partner has been fined £400.
Christopher Smith, of Glenburn Road, Hamnavoe, appeared from custody at Lerwick Sheriff Court yesterday to admit the offence, which took place at an address in Lerwick on August 23 last year while he was on bail.
The 39-year-old admitted shouting, swearing and acting in an aggressive manner towards the woman and uttering threats of violence.
Sheriff Philip Mann told Smith that he “can’t behave like this in any relationship”, adding that the court takes a “dim view” of that type of offence.
He said £50 of the fine related to the bail aggravation.
The 39-year-old appeared from custody after failing to attend a court appearance on Tuesday.
