A bloke has avoided extra jail time for hitting his partner years after handed a suspended sentence for yanking his penis.
Luke Lal had been given a 12 months sentence suspended for 18 for the incident in January 2020, but was arrested again in August of this year.
Police got a tip-off to a potential fight in Birmingham’s Gay Village, which involved Lal and his partner.

Speaking at Birmingham Crown Court, Maninder Chagger, prosecuting, reported the victim had received cuts and swelling around the eye from hairdresser Lal and police later found a restraining order had been in place.
But Lal, who had been remanded in custody, swerved the cage after the court heard the pair had “made up” and the restraining order had been removed.
The court heard that in 2020 Lal had “grabbed hold of the complainant's penis and yanked it repeatedly causing a small laceration of his penis' following a 'heated verbal argument”.
Chagger said Lal had also picked up a knife in the historic incident but it was ultimately thrown out of the window.

The victim was taken to Birmingham’s Queen Elizabeth hospital where his penis was treated.
As well as his sentence, Lal had been given 150 hours of community service.
But he fell onto the radar of the law again in the recent incident, which saw police attend Hurst Street at around 11pm on August 3.
The court heard Lal 31, of Alcester Road, Moseley, had been ‘punching his boyfriend’ but Philip Brunt, defending, said the two “are now talking again and was not afraid of him”.
He added the ‘punch’ was more of a ‘slap’ and clarified Lal had problems with alcohol, BirminghamLive reports.
Brunt said: "He took himself to the magistrates' court and asked for them to discharge the restraining order that Lal had breached.

"His actions say something about the nature of the relationship that has existed and does exist between these two men."
Lal had prior offences for breaching a restraining order, possessing cannabis and common assault.
Recorder Ben Mills increased Lal’s previous sentence by six months and made him pay £445 in costs.
He was also sentenced to eight months suspended for 20 months and handed 80 hours of unpaid labour.
Mills said Lal had not made good on the chance to improve and change given to him by the court last time.
