Restaurant owner who assaulted cousin given 100 hours community service

A restaurant owner who assaulted his cousin on the street outside the business they owned together has been sentenced to a community order of 100 hours and fined £145.

Ariel Levy, 26, of Hamilton Terrace in north-west London was sentenced in Westminster Magistrates Court on Wednesday. He must complete the community order by January 6 2017 and was ordered to pay a victim surcharge of £60 and a Crown Prosecution Service charge of £85.

Mr Levy pleaded guilty in December to committing actual bodily harm by twice punching 28-year-old Zion Levy in the face, leaving the victim with a fractured jaw which necessitated a diet of soft foods for six weeks.

Ariel and Zion Levy own the Fiori Corner bistro in Leicester Square.
