A convicted sex offender from Newtown has been sent to jail for six months after appearing in court for the second time this year for breaching the terms of a suspended prison sentence.

Magistrates decided not to give Elijah Callum Griffiths, of Llanfair Road, Newtown, “one last chance” before he was taken away from the dock by prison officers at Welshpool Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday (August 16) to start his 26-week prison sentence.
