The essential Tuesday court round-up for Tayside and Fife…

Text attack

Paul Bilan has been handed a three year jail sentence for unleashing an attack on his partner after she discovered his texts to an ex-girlfriend.

Bilan admitted repeatedly punching the woman on the head, giving her a bloody nose, at a property in Greenloanings, Kirkcaldy, on July 12.

He also threatened her with violence while holding a knife.

The court heard the woman had looked through Bilan’s phone and found texts from a former partner.

An argument broke out before Bilan lashed out, punching her on the face twice

The woman sent photos of her nose and smeared make-up to a friend, photos that were ultimately shown to police before they apprehended Bilan.
