Mother and father jailed for beating their daughter, 17, for 'bringing shame on the family' by having a black boyfriend

Jane Champion (centre) and her boyfriend Aflonce Ncube (right) were attacked by her parents David and Frances Champion (left) in what the Judge called a 'vile' and 'disgraceful' racist attack in St Thomas, Swansea. 

Mr Champion hit his daughter and kicked her boyfriend, screaming racial abuse while he pushed him out the door.  

Mr Champion was jailed today for 12 months and his wife for nine months after two 'vile' racial attacks on the pair.

Delivering his sentence, Judge Peter Heywood said: 

‘We live in a liberal and enlightened society and these sorts of racist behaviour cannot be tolerated. 

 The way you reacted was totally inappropriate.

‘I would be failing in my public duty if I was to do anything other than to impose a custodial sentence.’
