A Rochdale man who physically and sexually assaulted a woman in Towyn North Wales has received an extended prison sentence.

Ben Marshall, 34, of Albion Street,appeared at Caernarfon Crown Court earlier this month.

He was charged with assault by penetration, occasioning actual bodily harm, intentional strangulation, and harassment.

The charged followed a disturbance at the White House Leisure Park on 23 March 2025.

The victim had sustained significant facial injuries after being repeatedly punched by Marshall.

The woman also disclosed that Marshall had sexually assaulted her.

After admitting the offences in court, Marshall was sentenced to 12 years and three months in prison.

He will serve a mandatory term of eight years and two months before he is considered for release by a parole board – with the remainder of the sentence to be served on license.

Inspector Ben Garnett said: “We utterly condemn the appalling violence and sexual abuse inflicted in this case.

“No one should ever experience such fear and harm, and our thoughts remain firmly with the victim as she continues to recover from this deeply traumatic ordeal.
