A 39-year-old Mawson man has been charged after allegedly committing multiple offences against his partner.
Police allege that the man began harassing the woman in December 2024, and over the course of this year police allege the man subjected the woman to numerous assaults.
The woman reported the matter to police on Thursday 19 June 2025. Police executed a search warrant at the man’s residence in Mawson on Friday 20 June.
The 39-year-old man, who was paroled in April, was subsequently arrested and taken to the ACT Watch House.
He will face the ACT Magistrates Court today charged with a number of offences including aggravated assault, choke, suffocate and strangle another person, sexual intercourse without consent and using a carriage service to menace and harass.
