Dundee man who stalked woman repeatedly asked why he was being ignored

Michael Sword, 38, of Logan Terrace in Dundee, had sentence deferred after admitting stalking charges.

Sword admitted that on November 7 and 8 last year, at St Kilda Road, he behaved in a threatening or abusive manner likely to cause fear or alarm, attended at the home address of a woman uninvited, repeatedly sent her grossly offensive text messages and picture messages, repeatedly telephoned her and repeatedly asked why she was ignoring him.

He also admitted breaching a bail condition, on both November 7 and 8, by entering St Kilda Road and repeatedly telephoning and sending text messages and picture messages to the woman.

Sentence was deferred by Sheriff Tom Hughes for reports and a restriction of liberty order assessment until April 6.
