Man Charged After Domestic Assault and Witness Tampering

Thirty-nine-year-old Dwayne Mullan faces multiple serious charges after a violent domestic incident in December, including assault, abusive behavior, perverting the course of justice, and resisting arrest. Police responded to two separate calls: one where the woman suffered a chin cut, and another where Mullan was found punching her. When officers attempted to arrest him, he resisted and threw a punch that missed. The victim, bleeding and bruised, said she thought she was going to die. While in custody, Mullan allegedly called the woman and instructed her to lie to police — she complied, telling officers Mullan didn’t cause the injuries. This led to additional charges of witness intimidation and perverting the course of justice. The detective confirmed the victim later changed her story, blaming travelers. Mullan’s bail application was initially blocked due to housing concerns but was eventually approved with strict conditions: £250 bail, no contact with the victim, a curfew, and bans on bars and public intoxication. The case is now set for trial at crown court, with a committal hearing scheduled for July eighth.
