A ‘cowardly bully’ dragged his partner down the stairs by her hair. Saiful Chowdhury, 33, had been in a relationship with the woman since 2012.
The relationship was turbulent, with Chowdhury often becoming aggressive, Manchester Crown Court heard. Things got worse when he lost his job in 2017 and he became violent.
On December 6, 2021, at around 9am, Chowdhury, of Trafford, asked the woman for £20 for petrol. She said she didn’t have it. He then asked for a bank transfer and she refused. He became aggressive and angry, the court heard.
