Ex-Boyfriend Facing Multiple Charges

A man accused of violence within an alleged controlling domestic relationship has appeared in court.

Dave Newman, 48, of Samos Road, Penge - now living in Biggin Hill - appeared on bail at Croydon Magistrates’ Court.


He is charged with three counts of assault, causing actual bodily harm, on the same female on November 16, 2022 and June 16 and 17, last year.


Newman is also charged with engaging in a controlling or coercive behaviour within a relationship between October 1, 2022 and December 31, last year.


This is alleged to involve which friends the victim could see, threatening to hurt himself or his dog, calling the complainant degrading names, preventing her ending the relationship and visiting her in contravention of a civil injunction.


Newman is also charged with the sexual assault of a female on November 10, last year and being in charge of a dog, namely an American XL Bully, dangerously out off control on the same day when a friend of the woman was injured.


He is also accused of the intentional strangulation of that same male on November 14, 2022.


Newman was bailed on condition he does not contact the complainants or visit their addresses and will appear at Woolwich Crown Court on August 16.
