A woman was dragged across a garden by her hair after witnessing her partner suffer a “sustained” beating, a public hearing has been told.
The assaults, which took place close to Halton Moor Boxing Club in east Leeds, left one of the victims with “potentially life-changing injuries,” according to police. Now, the boxing club has been refused a licence to host an upcoming event, after the authorities linked the venue to the attacks, which happened in the early hours of October 17 last year.
Police said there was a “cloud of fear” hanging over the club, on Cartmell Drive, which left members reluctant to help with the investigation. Multiple arrests have been made, but no-one has been charged over the incident.
