AN ASIAN man who smashed his ex-wife’s head against a car and called her a “bacon basher” for dating a white man was on Monday (24) ordered to pay her £150 in compensation.
Syed Ahmad, an accountant, assaulted his former spouse of 21 years, Perveen Ahmad, outside a David Llyod centre in Cheadle, Greater Manchester.
Syed and Perveen got into an altercation after she emerged from a gym to find her car vandalised. Syed grabbed Perveen’s Louis Vuitton tote bag before assaulting her.
The pair was separated by Perveen’s boyfriend David Wallwork, who pinned Syed to the ground.
A mobile phone footage recovered by police show Perveen calling her ex-husband a “bitter, twisted man who committed money laundering.”
He responded saying: “She does dark magic and is never satisfied.
“She is vicious that why she has got a black face because she’s vicious – you’re evil you’re absolutely evil.”
Syed and Perveen, from Bramhall, were married for 21 years before they split up in 2015. She began dating Wallwork, who managed properties for her husband, a while later.
Perveen told Stockport Magistrates Court: “He is constantly mocking me for my face as I have melasma. He put his phone to my face and he was saying all sorts of obscenities.
“He called me a “bacon basher” and he has said it many times; it means that I’m going out with somebody who is white and it wasn’t the first time I had heard that.”
Alongside the compensation, he was also banned from contacting his ex-wife as part of a 12-month restraining order.
Defence lawyer Benjamin Kaufman told the hearing: “He very much regrets the incident and his behaviour although still stands by his account.
“He has never so much as been arrested, a family man, a hardworking man it can be seen as very much an isolated incident.
“This is a man desperate to move on with his life he is somebody that has always supported his family both emotionally and financially being a positive role model to his three children. He does good work in the community – takes part in charity work and assist homeless people, assisted in setting up numerous food banks in the community – he is somebody who has always contributed well to society.
“He is now in a position where he doesn’t see any of his children – it has destroyed him and broken him because his children were his life. It has been a very acrimonious divorce the only real losers in this case are his three children.”
