Kasabian's Tom Meighan admits assaulting partner

Former Kasabian frontman Tom Meighan has admitted assaulting his partner in a drunken and "sustained" attack.

Prosecutor Naeem Valli said the child "sounded panicked and afraid" while making the call and the victim could be heard saying "get off me, get off me". The court heard Ms Ager suffered bruising to her knees, left elbow, outer ankle and big toe as well as a reddening around the neck, which she confirmed to officers was as a result of the assault.

"You threatened her with a wooden pallet. It seems you thought better of it, thankfully, and threw it down on the hot tub aggressively."There are a number of things which make this offence more serious. A child was witness to this behaviour and she must have been frightened over what was happening.
