London, Apr 1 (PTI) A 49-year-old Indian-origin man from the West Midlands region of England, who had earlier been handed restraining orders, has now been sentenced to two years imprisonment for harassing his parents for money to fund his drug addiction.
Daevan Patel was found to have emotionally blackmailed his parents for money and flouted restraining orders preventing him from contacting them in order to get cash. According to a court report from Wolverhampton Crown Court in ‘Birmingham Live’, Judge John Butterfield said Patel had made his parents' lives a “misery” by “bleeding them for money” as he sentenced him to a two-year prison term and also handed another five-year restraining order.
"You have contempt for others and for the orders of the courts," the judge told him this week.
