The victim called the police and she was arrested in February 2019.

Police Constable Jenna Sorensen said: “These kind of harassment offences can have a very considerable impact on people’s lives.

"The messages and calls caused the victim serious alarm and distress. The contact made by Clemence was unwanted and it caused a lot of anxiety for the victim. It caused adverse effects on his usual day-to-day activities and had a huge impact on his mental health.

“These type of offences cause a significant amount of fear and distress and we simply won’t tolerate this kind of behaviour.

"We take these incidents extremely seriously and encourage anyone who might be experiencing this to contact the police immediately."
