2. I make this affidavit in support of the Claimants (my husband) application
for the Defendant’s committal on the basis of a breach of the interim
injunction order made by the Edmonton County Court on 09 January 2018.
3. I witnessed the terrible assault committed by the Defendant on my
husband on 45 March 2018 and confirm the facts stated in my husband’s
affidavit dated 20 April 2018.
4. Mr Cordell harassed, abused and repeatedly punched my husband on his
face, causing him to bleed and to break two of his teeth. I tried to stop him
but he would not listen to me.
5. We contacted the police who arrested both Mr Cordell and my husband.
My husband was kept by the police overnight while he was a victim of the
assault. The police could see the facial injuries, bleedings and damages
sustained to his face and teeth but decided to keep him at the police
station while he was a victim of the assault. Surprisingly I heard that Mr
Cordell was arrested, interviewed and released on the same day. The
police decided not to charge him for some unknown reasons.
6. I believe that the Police decision was wrong, as there is clear evidence of
assault, I was not interviewed while being a key witness to the incident.
The Defendant should have been arrested and brought back to the Court
following the breach of the injunction order so it could decide on his arrest.
7. I fear for my family safety and feels that the interim injunction with the
London Borough of Enfield obtained on 09 January 2018 is not providing
me and my family protection as the police refuses to enforce the terms of
the order despite clear evidence that Mr Cordell has breached the terms.
