He’d regularly check Miss Cunliffe’s mobile phone, tell her what to wear and demanded she send him pictures to prove she was at home.

During a four-week romance, Bailey also bombarded Miss Cunliffe with calls – sometimes up to 30 calls in the space of half an hour – and then falsely accused her of Cheat!ng on him whenever she did not answer.

In one phone call, Bailey warned her:

“You’ll get a car through your front window and I’ll

Miss Cunliffe, from Bolton, Greater Manchester tried to end the relationship but Bailey then threatened to kill her family.

He was also barred from contacting Miss Cunliffe for five years under the terms of a restraining order.
