1. Cut the Contact
The first time he tries to make contact, state your intentions clearly. Make sure you tell him that you are no longer interested in this relationship and that he should not contact you anymore.

2. Notifications
Your ex will definitely try to get in touch with your friends and family. So tell them that your relationship with him is over. If necessary, ask them to stop taking his calls too. Make sure that they do not give out any details about you, your activities or current life to your ex at any cost.
3. Start Over
