Universal Hub is reporting that a Suffolk Superior Court judge today sentenced Ismail Mohamed, 40, to six to eight years in state prison and three years of probation for kidnapping, assault and battery, assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, and indecent assault and battery on a person over 14.

See report below:

At about 5:50 a.m. on Monday, officers responded to a call for an assault in the basement apartment of 87 Cambridge Street in Charlestown. Officers located the suspect, later identified as Mohamed, sitting on a bed while the female victim was sitting on the floor, bleeding from her face. A large amount of blood was visible on a blanket and pillow also found on the floor. The victim appeared disoriented and unable to open her eyes. Officers observed severe bruising and swelling around both eyes, mouth and cheeks and multiple cuts above and beneath her eyelids. She was transported to a nearby hospital for treatment.

Mohamed told police he was with the victim in the apartment when a fight ensued. He then fell asleep and when he woke up, discovered the victim to be suffering from the injuries. He then admitted to cutting the victim’s face to help reduce the swelling around her eyes.

Both Mohamed and the victim denied any domestic relationship. According to phone records, Mohamed was the 911 caller.

Mohamed pled guilty last week to all charges.
