Sent to prison A MAN has been sent to prison after he was found guilty of domestic abuse of a woman in Andover last year. Ryan Daniel Smith has been given a 12-week prison sentence after he was convicted of the assault by beating of the woman on September 13, 2020. The 37-year-old, whose listed address is that of his solicitor’s office, was ordered to pay £200 in compensation and £350 in costs. Basingstoke Magistrates’ Court also found him guilty of damaging a car belonging to the victim, and using violence to secure entry to a property in Mercury Drive. He had denied the charges at an earlier hearing last September.
