Man threatened to slit pregnant girlfriend’s throat unless she converted to Islam
A man who threatened to slit his pregnant girlfriend’s throat with a Stanley knife unless she converted to Islam was spared jail today.
Kuldeep Chail, 47, made the announcement about his girlfriend to a complete stranger he had approached at a bus stop, who was so disturbed by the threat he alerted the police.
Chail told Mohammed Malik that he wanted his 'white Christian' partner to convert to Islam, but that she 'woudn't listen', before showing the alarmed bus passenger a Stanley knife and making cutting motions across his throat.
Chail approached Mr Malik at a bus stop in Ilford, Essex, and told him his 'wife' had a baby 'in her belly' and that he was going to show her some videos about Islam.
But when he appeared at Snaresbrook Crown Court today it emerged that Chail is himself a Sikh, not a Muslim, and that he is not in fact married to his pregnant partner.
The 47-year-old - who was accompanied by his pregnant girlfriend at the court - was given a suspended prison sentence of nine months.
Chail's defence solicitor told the court he only made the comments because he was drunk.
