Craig also admitted abusing a third woman earlier this year at a Maddiston home by kicking her on the body on April 4; repeatedly punching and kicking her on the head and body on May 14; and punching her head, kicking her body and pushing her to the floor on May 15, all to her injury.

Defence solicitor Murray Aitken said: “He accepts he was in the wrong. He wishes to tackle his alcohol difficulties.”
Craig was jailed for 15 months, backdated to July 29, and made subject to a non-harassment order banning him from contacting two of the women for three years.
