John Robertson (45), of Omoa Road, Cleland, appeared at Hamilton Sheriff Court to admit punching and kicking Ryan Wilson repeatedly on the head and body at a neighbouring house on July 19.

He also admitted shouting abuse and threats, challenging people to fight and brandishing a bottle at police officers.

The court heard Robertson had served a six-year stretch for rape and was then subject to a four-year supervision order. He has now been jailed for ten months.
