A man who hurled racist abuse at police officers has been sent to jail.
Kirklees Magistrates Court was told that 28-year-old Adeel Nafees also spat at them and said he would rape their daughters in a drunken diatribe which he began outside a house on Lavender Croft in Batley.
Nafees, of Charnwood Bank in Batley, was approached by police on July 7, who had received calls that he was throwing stones at a window.
Charlotte Alport, prosecuting, said that officers noticed his speech was slurred and that he smelled of alcohol.
She added: “He was abusive. He swore at them despite being asked to calm down and spat in the direction of a Pc.
“He was arrested but in the police van called them black and white b******s and spat at another Pc.
“He also threatened to rape their daughters.”
A small amount of cannabis was found on Nafees when in custody where he spat at a third officer.
Nafees pleaded guilty to two counts of racially aggravated assault, one of racially aggravated harrassment, being drunk and disorderly and possessing cannabis.
Mitigating, Andy Day said Nafees knew he had acted wrongly.
“He realises he was completely wrong and makes no excuses”, he said.
“He did say that the police officers were being rude to him and were winding him up. which he allowed them to do.”
John Gledhill, lead magistrate, said: “The victims were carrying out their duties in a public place.”
Nafees was sentenced to 16 weeks in prison, made up of eight consecutive weeks for each assault charge and eight weeks for the harassment that will be served concurrently.
