The accused was charged with seven violent offences, including sexual assault, assault with a weapon, assault by choking, and uttering death threats, arising from an 18-month relationship with his former intimate partner.
The trial turned on the credibility of the parties, with the Crown relying on secret audio recordings made by the complainant that captured the accused's abusive behaviour.
The court rejected the accused's testimony, finding it implausible and contradicted by the recordings, and accepted the complainant's evidence.
The accused was found guilty on all counts.
