«Breaking News» Man punched partner in face and said it was acceptable in his culture

Chaudry Mahmood, 51, and his former sister-in-law turned partner, were arguing at a funfair in Brighouse, West Yorkshire

A man punched his girlfriend in the face and justified his actions by claiming it was acceptable in 'Asian culture' to hit women, a court heard.

Chaudry Mahmood, 51, and his former sister-in-law turned partner, were arguing at a funfair in Brighouse, West Yorkshire.

Tensions within the family have been running high since their relationship started around five months ago.

A witness who in their car stopped to take photographs of Mahmood before calling the police. 

Prosecutor Natalie Chapman said the passerby witnessed the attack after seeing the victim sitting on the bench.

Ms Chapman said: 'A male was stood up close by and with his right hand he punched her to the side of her face, causing her to move.

'Immediately the witness pulled over, took photos of the defendant and called 999.

'He heard a heated exchange but not what was being said. She looked annoyed and walked towards a car, getting into the driver's seat.

'The defendant then walked over and sat in the passenger seat.' 

Mahmood, of Ravensthorpe, initially told police he had only pushed his partner when he was first arrested.

Ms Chapman added: 'He said it was Asian culture, an open hand to the back to the head to shut them up.

'When asked if he'd do anything differently he said "no".'

The victim refused to give a statement to police, the court heard. 

Mohammed Arif, mitigating, said: 'She was his sister-in-law and it's not gone down very well within the family.

'They are very upset that the defendant has entered into a relationship with his ex sister-in-law, now his partner, and he's been the subject of harassment by members of the family from both sides.

'He's reported matters to police on numerous occasions and on the day in question they'd gone to get away from the harassment when the family issues have arisen.'

Mr Arif said a disagreement between the couple broke out and the victim hit Mahmood first.

He told magistrates: 'He's then retaliated and accepts he's gone beyond any kind of self-defence.

'He regrets his actions, it was a momentary incident.

The incident took place near Wellhome Park in Brighouse, West Yorkshire

'Having been charged with this offence they've waited for this hearing to take place so that they can make a fresh start and move away from the area.' 

Mahmood pleaded guilty to assault by beating when he appeared before Kirklees Magistrates' Court.  

The case was aggravated because it took place in public and people would have been upset by what they had witnessed, Mahmood was told in court.  

They fined him £80 and ordered him to pay £85 prosecution costs plus £30 victim surcharge.

Chaudry...

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
