A Wakefield man has been handed a suspended sentence and a restraining order after assaulting his ex-partner.

The suspended sentence means that he can be sent straight to prison if he commits any more offences or fails to comply with the requirements of his sentence.

Detective Sergeant Craig Magee of the Domestic Abuse Team, who led the investigation, said: “We welcome the sentencing of Bradley Kynaston at court and hope the victim can take comfort in the result to assist moving forward from the ordeal.

“I fully commend her courage in coming forwards and reporting this abuse, allowing us to launch a full investigation resulting in his conviction.

“Domestic abuse offending has a dreadful impact on its victims and can be among the hardest forms of criminal offending for them to report.  West Yorkshire Police is absolutely committed to reducing these crimes as part of ongoing work to reduce violence against women within our communities.”

He added: “Dedicated safeguarding detectives thoroughly investigate each offence reported to our department and can pledge that victims will always be treated sympathetically, with their needs put at the heart of every investigation.  

“No-one should have to suffer domestic abuse and contacting us allows us to investigate and put in place the necessary support that victims require.”
