An 'abusive' stalker threatened to 'chop up' his ex-girlfriend's son and cut her cat's head off, a court heard.
John Parvin also said he would stab the victim's new boyfriend and burn down her house on Christmas Eve, the Liverpool Echo reports. He left her in a 'constant state of fear' and 'always on watch for him'.
Parvin, who has a history of abusing former partners, had known his victim for 'many years' as they were 'close neighbours' who had lived opposite one another, Liverpool Crown Court was told. They began a short-lived relationship in November 2020, which ended in April 2021.
