A husband strangled his wife of 42 years and threatened to kill her after she told him she didn't want to have sex with him because he was drunk. The attack left the woman "in utter fear" and unable to sleep.
Ha Tang, 68, of Barry, strangled his wife three times on March 24 during an assault at the home they shared. It began when he called her into the living room and said: "Why don't you want to have sex with me?"
A sentencing hearing at Cardiff Crown Court heard she did not want to have sex with the defendant because he was drunk, but he became angry and accused her of having a boyfriend and called her a "ho". He continued to shout and swear at the victim and was clearly intoxicated, as he was slurring his words and stumbling around.
