He was seen giving high fives in the street afterwards Ian Wright, Prosecutor
Prosecutor Ian Wright told how the Gaddafi-clad reveller was in the bar for just six minutes when he sank his teeth into his left ear from behind. Mr Wright said: "He was seen giving high fives in the street afterwards." Mobile app designer Gwynant Jones, 25, was at the bar at the Academy bar in the seaside town of Aberystwyth, West Wales, when he was "savaged" by the fancy dress despot. Mr Wright said: "He approached from behind and placed his hands on his shoulder before biting his left ear - ripping the lower section off."

Mr Jones said: "All I can remember is being at the bar and then suddenly feeling a lot of pain. "I leaned forward and I think that's when my ear must have ripped off and I saw lots of blood." He said he had not spoken nor argued with the fancy dress party before being attacked. The court heard the severed ear lobe was later recovered from the floor by a barman but it was not possible to reattach it.
