A November trial date is set for a Wigan man denying multiple charges of throttling, criminal damage and restraining order breaches

A Wigan 37-year-old has denied 13 charges of violence and harassment, mainly against the same woman.

Darren Callaghan, of Bryn Street, Ince, appeared before a Bolton Crown Court judge to plead not guilty to four accusations of intentionally strangling a named female, four of assaulting her by beating, three of harassing her when breaching a restraining order and two of criminal damage.

All the offences are alleged to have been committed between April 4 and May 3 this year.

Callaghan was further remanded into custody until a trial at the same court scheduled to begin on November 4.
