A man who punched a crying six-week-old baby in the face was jailed for nine months yesterday.
A judge told Darren Ashmore, 25, that a prison sentence was the only appropriate punishment for the "terrible" offence.
Doctors had feared the baby suffered brain damage as a result of internal bleeding caused by the blow to the left side of his head.
But advocate depute Peter Hammond said it was hoped that the little boy would make a full recovery.
