View original image[Asia Economy Reporter Jumi Lee] A man who assaulted a group of troublemakers while having physical contact with his girlfriend on the floor of a train station in Australia has been cleared of charges.
According to a British media report on the 29th (local time), in January last year, Harry Chronopoulos was kissing his then-girlfriend Jade Konati outside Sydney City Hall in Australia when they encountered some men.
The men made insulting remarks to the couple, which eventually escalated into a physical fight.
During the scuffle, one of the group, Yegenanesh Eswaran, was struck by Harry and fell to the ground.
Harry was prosecuted for assaulting Eswaran, but the judge dismissed the case, accepting Harry's claim of self-defense and acquitting him.
Girlfriend Jade recounted the situation, saying, "Men passing by asked, 'Why is the man on top of the woman?' I replied, 'He is my boyfriend. Go away.'"
She added, "They called me a B*ch and kept chasing us, so out of fear, I pushed the men away."
Although CCTV footage captured Harry punching Eswaran in the face, the court considered that Harry intervened when Eswaran and his friends displayed aggressive behavior.
Harry reportedly stated to the police, "I was trying to protect my girlfriend who felt threatened."
