A man in his mid-30s has been charged with breaching a civil restraining order after allegedly contacting a woman on social media despite being prohibited from doing so. The woman, who claims to have never invited contact from the man, moved to a nearby apartment due to his alleged 'infatuation'. The court heard he had previously been accused of breaching an interim restraining order and was arrested after allegedly attempting to connect with the woman on LinkedIn. Bail was denied due to concerns about potential witness interference.
A neighbour with an "infatuation" made a woman flee her home before he broke a restraining order by contacting her on social media , it is alleged.
The court heard that he was charged with breaching a civil restraining order granted at the end of December and that he had already been accused of breaking the interim version of that order. In December, she obtained the interim restraining order, which was allegedly breached and led to another pending prosecution.
He said his client was well educated and that "the penny had dropped" for the man, who now understood that a breach of the order puts him in jeopardy of custody. He was charged for that but had received bail pending the result of that case, which is scheduled to be heard in April. The court heard that the alleged latest attempted contact on Linked In was a connection request with an associated message.
