It is also alleged that Samuel engaged in controlling or coercive behaviour between September 9, 2022, and February 15, 2023, during which time he allegedly monitored movements, demanded to know whereabouts, and monitored and controlled the social media accounts of the woman.
A fifth charge was also brought against Samuel, as it is alleged that between January 1, and January 31, Samuel disclosed a private sexual photograph or film of the woman, without her consent. Police were called to reports a woman had been assaulted at around 12.15am, on Sunday, February 19 at the hotel on Pool Lane, Bromborough.
