Machete thug is jailed for 12 years

A THUG attacked his partner so violently with a machete after going on a 72-hour drink and drugs binge that he snapped it from its handle.

Aron Jae Condor’s terrified victim was asleep when he began ‘raining blows’ on her head and back with the blade in the early hours of the morning.

The muscle from her right shoulder was left exposed after he sliced through it during the frenzied attack.

When officers arrived at Condor’s home following the attack, they discovered he was growing 30 cannabis plants in two rooms, with a wholesale value of between £3,000 and £8,000.

Condor, of Bank Street, Clayton, pleaded guilty at Manchester Crown Court to one count of wounding and one count of producing a controlled class B drug and abstracting electricity.

Condor, aged 40, was sentenced to a total of 12 years and eight months in jail and was also given a restraining order.
