A 40-year-old man has been left with a criminal record after he admitted ‘speaking loudly’ to his wife during a row.

Pawel Wadek admitted acting in a way that was likely to cause fear or alarm to wife Wioletta at their home in Perth on October 11 last year.

But he was shown mercy by a sheriff and allowed to escape punishment after raising his voice during ‘a relatively minor dispute’.

Solicitor Pauline Cullerton, defending, said: ‘Reports confirm that he has been of good behaviour since the incident.’  

Sheriff Neil Bowie admonished Wadek and said he had been ‘behaving in a threatening or abusive manner in that you did speak loudly to your wife and took hold of her hands’.

He continued: ‘I heard details of this matter a few months ago.

‘In the circumstances I am satisfied that I can simply admonish you.

‘Ultimately you were convicted of a relatively minor dispute, but nevertheless this is an incident that you would hope to avoid again in future I’m sure.

‘You have stayed out of trouble since and it seems to me that this was an isolated incident.’
