Jealous mistress fought with her ex-lover’s wife


27/ 2/2004

WHEN a former mistress confronted the wife of her ex-lover in his home there was a cat fight that spilled out onto the street, a court heard.
Magistrates were told that 24-year-old mother-of-one Shenaz Khan of Reservoir Street, Rochdale visited the home of her ex-boy-friend and had seen him disappear into the house.
The ex-boy-friend's wife, Shazir Tabassum, appeared and there was shouting and screaming outside the house in Mark Street.
The husband ordered his wife to close the door but Khan jammed it with her foot and grabbed hold of the wife dragging her outside.
The two women fought. Khan pulled Mrs Tabassum's hair andscratched her face. She was pulled inside the house by her husband but the shouting and screaming continued with Khan banging on the front door.The wife suffered scratching, scarring and a cut inside her mouth.
Defending Khan, Mike Salt said she was a woman of previous good
character who had been in a relationship with the complainant's husband and had lived with him for several months until January.
He had gone back to his wife and Khan had gone over to speak to him.
He said: "There was a scuffle between the two ladies and although Khan accepts responsibility for placing her foot in the door she also had injuries inflicted on her."
He added that though Khan had scratches on her face she accepted prime responsibility for the fracas.
Magistrates gave Khan a conditional discharge for twelve months but ordered her to pay £125 compensation.
