Waldemar Czekanski subjected his ex-partner to unwanted communications and visited her property on multiple occasions over a two-year period between September 2021 and 2023.

The 47-year-old had previously damaged her home, let himself into the address and threatened to kill her.

He pleaded guilty to stalking his former partner in Mansfield on September 20, 2023, and an interim Stalking Protection Order was granted the next day before being made indefinite in October.

Czekanski was released from prison on licence in November to an approved address in Hucknall, however, information received by the probation service suggested that he was planning to resume the relationship with his former partner.

During a Stalking Protection Order visit in December, two Safer Neighbourhood Team police officers discovered Czekanski had made multiple outgoing calls to his ex-partner and breached the order when they checked his mobile phone.

The officers’ intervention helped protect the victim from further harm when Czekanski was arrested on the spot.

He was charged with breaching the Stalking Protection Order and remanded into custody.

Czekanski, of Astral Grove, Hucknall, pleaded guilty on December 22 at Nottingham Magistrates’ Court and was jailed for four months, spending Christmas behind bars.
