Grime star Dizzee Rascal will have to wear an electronic tag and follow a 24-week curfew for assaulting his ex-fiancée during a domestic dispute, The Guardian reports.
The Mc, real name Dylan Mills, was sentenced Friday, April 8, after being found guilty last month of assaulting Cassandra Jones during an altercation in June 2021. On top of the community order stipulating the curfew and the electronic tag, the judge gave Mills a 12-month restraining order.
A lawyer for Mills did not immediately return Rolling Stone’s request for comment.
