A 'dine and dash' fraudster and a man who tried to drown his former partner in a bath were among those sent to prison this week.
Here are some of the people jailed in the region this week.
Jaroslaw Rychlewicz
Jaroslaw Rychlewicz, 45, of Skelton Road in Diss, was jailed for two years after he admitted causing actual bodily harm and assault by beating on May 15, 2021.
Norwich Crown Court heard how Rychlewicz had been drinking heavily when he attacked his former partner, who he had been in an 18 month relationship with.
He pushed the victim into a bath and turned on the shower and taps before spraying the shower in her face.
The court heard how his former partner was unable to breathe and was gasping for air, before she managed to push him away and climb out of a window. The victim suffered an injury to her hand.
Rychlewicz was also made subject to a five-year restraining order.
