A controlling thug ordered his wife to shave her hair off and whipped her with a belt during a fit of rage. Kalanther Nibraz, 45, behaved in an 'appalling' way to his wife of 17 years and 'made her life a misery'.
He didn't work and spent his wife's earnings from her job on cannabis, Manchester Crown Court heard. On one occasion after looking through her mobile phone, Nibraz, from Trafford, whipped her 10 times with a belt and then ordered her to shave her head.
"He told her to shave her hair off, which she did," prosecutor Helen Longworth said. She told how the couple, originally from South Asia, met in 2004 before marrying two years later. They moved to the UK in 2007 and settled in Manchester, having three children together.
