Nottinghamshire woman strangled by 'demonic' man who bit and stubbed cigarette on her

A Nottinghamshire woman was strangled and had a cigarette stubbed out on her head by a 'demonic' attacker. John Chittock subjected the woman to a 'catalogue of violence', assaulting her multiple times between March and June 2022.

Chittock, of Vaughan Avenue, Doncaster, abused his victim multiple times at her home in Nottinghamshire. On June 28, the 38-year-old grabbed the woman by the throat and strangled her before biting her cheek and nose.

Chittock verbally abused the woman as he pinned her down, saying: "I don't care if you are a man or a woman, I will still hurt you all the same." On June 17, a drunken Chittock had stubbed a lit cigarette out on the side of her head, causing burns to her skin and hair, and then forcefully smeared Sudocrem all over her face in an attempt to humiliate her.
