Cookstown man facing two charges of non-fatal strangulation and assaulting a female
A Co Tyrone man was connected to two charges of non-fatal strangulation when he appeared at Magherafelt Magistrates Court.
The 34-year-old was released on bail with orders not to have any contact with the alleged injured party.
Shane Mullan, whose address was given as Killeenan Road, Cookstown, is charged with unlawfully assaulting a female, two counts of non-fatal strangulation or asphyxiation, and engaging in a course of behaviour to be likely to cause the victim suffer physical or psychological harm.
The alleged offences happened between February 5 and May 26.


Prosecuting counsel asked for the case to be adjourned for receipt of outstanding papers.
Adjourning the case until July 22, District Judge Conor Heaney made it a condition of bail that Mullan resides at an address in Dunleath Avenue, Cookstown, and does not have any contact with the alleged injured party.
The judge excused Mullan from attending the next hearing, but advised him to stay in touch with his solicitor.
