Prison, community service and banning order for wife beater

A judge in Granada has sentenced a man convicted of five counts of mistreating his wife to two years and nine months in prison, eighty days community service and banned him from approaching or communicating with his wife for three years.

The couple had been married since 1987, but there appears to have been a long history of abuse, both physical and mental. In 2005, the accused caused physical injury to his wife during the course of an argument and she needed hospital treatment for a dislocated shoulder. The marriage was ended in 2006.
