A businessman who called his ex-wife a ‘bacon basher’ during a vicious assault after she started dating a white man has been ordered to pay her £150. Syed Ahmad, 51, vandalised Perveen Ahmad’s car before grabbing her by her bag and smashing her head into another vehicle. He was eventually pulled off Perveen, also 51, by her boyfriend David Wallwork, 54, who then pinned Ahmad to the ground. Footage recorded by Ahmad also showed him accusing Perveen of engaging in ‘dark magic’, calling her ‘absolutely evil’ and mocking her for having a skin condition. She was later treated in hospital for grazing to her arm, elbow and knees following the incident outside her gym in Greater Manchester on August 13 last year.
Perveen, a manager at the couple’s student lettings company, later told police she was ‘scared’ he was going to harm their three children. The couple, from Bramhall, Cheshire had been married for 21 years and had three children, but split up in 2015 after Ahmad walked out on the family on Father’s Day.
Ahmad claimed Perveen was following him and accused her of sending him provocative images despite him telling her to stop. He also said that he did not mean to hurt his ex, and that she fell as he was attempting to grab her mobile phone.
Ahmad was convicted of assault by beating and criminal damage at an earlier hearing and has also been banned from contacting his ex-wife under the terms of a 12 month restraining order. He was further ordered to complete 150 hours unpaid work as part of a 12 month community order. He will have to pay £818.32 to owner of the other car plus £735 in costs and surcharges.
