A MAN with a history of offending is back behind bars after he admitted burglary with intent and being in breach of a suspended prison sentence.

Kyran Peplar, 29, of Borfa Place, Cefn Fforest, was jailed at Newport Magistrates’ Court following his guilty plea to a raid in Blackwood last month.

That offence put him in breach of a suspended sentence for attempted burglary in September.

Peplar, jailed for six years and six months in 2012 for an armed robbery at a Pentwynmawr takeaway, also admitted being in possession of cannabis.

The defendant was jailed for 30 weeks and ordered to pay £213 in costs and a surcharge following his release from custody.
