The artist was captured on CCTV using a tree branch to repeatedly punch a 23-year-old lone man in Coventry in 2018 who spent 10 days in hospital.

Salieu previously admitted a violent disorder and was imprisoned for 33 months.

During wider violence, Fidel Glasgow - grandson of Specials singer Neville Staple - was stabbed to death.

No one has been charged with the murder of the 21-year-old following a musical event at Coventry's Club M in the early hours of September 1, 2018.

Salieu, who was named the sound of the BBC in 2021, was cleared of a second count of violent disorder at Warwick Crown Court, linked to the mass brawl minutes earlier which led to the death of Mr. Glasgow.
