Milton Keynes City Council has obtained a ten-year anti-social behaviour injunction for prolific abuser who has been banned from entering parts of Milton Keynes due to attacks against women.
Ryan Duke has been banned from entering parts of New Bradwell and Fishermead after a spate of horrifying attacks against women.
The court order was granted following an investigation by the city council, which revealed that Mr Duke has carried out threats and engaged in violence towards his former partners, their friends, family and neighbours.
In one instance, he used bricks and weapons to smash windows and damage three properties in the Meads Close area. In April, a Closure Order was granted, which resulted in a property where he was residing being closed down. Despite this, he continued with threats and intimidation towards his victims, resulting in the city council applying for the injunction.
The injunction means Mr Duke cannot enter Pencarrow Mews in Fishermead and an area surrounding Meads Close in New Bradwell. The order also states that he must not engage in any form of harassment, threatening, aggressive or violent behaviour to any person. Mr Duke has been ordered not to contact or communicate with any of the ten victims.
If he is caught entering these areas or breaching any part of the injunction he will be arrested and could face up to two years in prison.
Cabinet Member for Community Safety, Councillor Amber McQuillan said, “This is a shocking case in which the victims have been subjected to horrific abuse. We will never tolerate this kind of behaviour and we’re prepared to do everything we can to protect our residents.”
