Report of beating after remark on the road. A man from Sofia and his pregnant wife told "Nova TV" how they were almost hit by a car driven by a woman crossing their path while they were walking on foot in the "Dragalevtsi" neighborhood.
Minutes after they expressed their outrage and continued on their way, another car caught up with the couple. The driver began beating the man and making death threats. Emil and Ganka hope that their story will help other victims of violence.
Around 6 p.m. On the unfortunate day, they were going to a courier company to pick up their package.
''Passing through the intersection, which is quite well lit, we tried to cross in front of a car that was some distance from us, but was moving very slowly. Suddenly, it accelerated and passed very close, and I expressed my dissatisfaction by hitting the car with my palm. The driver rolled down the window and said that there was no pedestrian crossing at that place, we exchanged remarks. We continued on the road and on the way back, after we picked up the package, a car flew towards us, and the driver ran down screaming," says the victim.
He beat me with his fists and kicks and asked me "what kind of cars are you kicking". He told me "here I will kill you, I will finish you, this is the end of you". He told us that his wife was pregnant, and mine said she was too. I remembered the number, I managed to take a picture, we filed a police report, I also have a medical report, he recalls.
Ganka describes the beating as fierce.
"I was in shock and horror at what was happening. This is the person closest to me. The feeling is indescribable. I screamed, I went numb, I felt like time was running out, even death. I told him that I was pregnant, but he continued to beat him anyway. A person from a nearby establishment came to help and broke them up," she said.
