A woman has denied having an extramarital affair when her "enraged" husband beat her when he caught her in bed with their naked neighbour.
On the other hand, the neighbor shouted: "It's not what you think."
Jason Heathcote, 42, followed his wife Ceri to John Richardson's Gawsworth home, in Macclesfield, Cheshire, at midnight and found her under the sheets in his bedroom.
The enraged man began shouting and throwing the woman as Richardson shouted: It's not what you think.
The woman, Heathcote, 40, suffered swelling on the left side of her face and said she was in a lot of pain.
She denied any sexual relationship with Richardson and said her husband had "lost his mind."
Warrington Heathcote Magistrates' Court ordered the man to pay the 40-year-old £500 compensation after pleading guilty to assault occasioning bodily harm.
