A road closure must be in place for safety reasons
Thirty-five-year-old Savastel Balaci, of Bridge Gardens in Grimsby, has been found guilty of common assault, malicious communications, stalking with fear of violence, and arson with intent to endanger life following a court appearance in May 2022. Since May, he has been remanded in custody until today where he was sentenced for the offences.
Investigating the case was Detective Constable Connolly who said: “Balaci was found guilty of a series of serious incidents where he meted out a campaign of intimidation and assault on his ex-partner and her family. He then became aggressive towards them and bombarded his victims with phone calls and messages threatening to kill them.
“The family managed to escape after being woken by the cracking and popping of the fire metres away from where they were sleeping. Balaci was arrested shortly after. “This clearly could have ended in tragedy had the family not been woken from sounds of the fire as it began to spread and managed to get everyone out of the property. Balaci’s actions were reckless and endangered the lives of the people in the house at the time.
