The bottle had smashed at some point and as Schaapveld struck Bisset repeatedly both of the victim's arms were cut. Schaapveld claimed she did not break the bottle deliberately - nor did she realise it was not intact when she swung it at Bisset. Isabel Bisset was stabbed at a party last year and is disappointed her attacker was discharged without a conviction. "Her not getting any conviction for what she did to me has also taken a huge toll on me," said Bisset.
