A man, who has admitted stabbing a woman, will be sentenced later this month.

Suleman Malik, 28, of Emily Street, Lawkholme, Keighley, was due to be sentenced at Bradford Crown Court last Wednesday.

Prosecutor Michelle Colborne said Malik had pleaded guilty to wounding with intent and possessing a knife. The offences took place last April. She said the Crown would offer no evidence on a separate rape charge. Sentencing was adjourned until January 29 and Malik was remanded in custody.
