Ex-Happy Mondays dancer Bez is wanted by Greater Manchester Police after he failed to answer bail over allegations he breached a restraining order.

His former partner Monica Ward claims the 46-year-old has pestered her with texts and calls since he was convicted of assaulting her in August.

Earlier this month Bez - real name Mark Berry - was bailed over accusations he broke his order by contacting Ms Ward.

He has now missed his latest police appointment, sparking a wanted alert.

Bez fined after breaching order

Former Happy Mondays star Bez has been fined £140 after he admitted breaching a restraining order preventing him contacting his ex-girlfriend.


Bez - real name Mark Berry - pleaded guilty to sending 22 text messages to Monica Ward who he was convicted of assaulting in August.

A two-year restraining order was imposed by magistrates earlier this year when he was jailed for four weeks for the offence.

He was not allowed to contact Miss Ward directly or indirectly and had to use his elder sons as go-betweens to arrange contact with their two-year-old son.

Manchester Magistrates' Court heard Bez broke the terms of the agreement when he texted her about the arrangements when he could not get through to his sons.
