The man arrested yesterday in Soria after slapping his partner while she was live on the TikTok social network has been summoned this Wednesday to hold a speedy trial for an alleged crime of abuse, as reported by the Superior Court of Justice of Castilla y León (TSJCyL).
The alleged attacker was arrested this Tuesday when he accompanied his partner to the Soria provincial police station, where she went to communicate the insults and threats she was receiving after the video went viral. The victim did not report his partner or request a protection measure. “Yes, he filed a complaint with the Police for threats and harassment on networks by other users and the media,” reports the TSJCyL. “After receiving the police report of this complaint yesterday, the Investigating Court 4, agreed to the dismissal.”
He, however, was arrested for allegedly assaulting his partner. The Investigating Court 4 of Soria, acting as a guard, agreed to his release and the man was placed at the disposal of the Investigating Court 3, with jurisdiction over Violence against Women, where today he is summoned for a trial. fast for an alleged crime of abuse.
The events occurred last weekend, when the girl, who identified herself in her intervention on TikTok as Simona, 23, participated live with three boys. While she was conversing with them, she received a hard slap from someone who was not onscreen but whom she called “honey” just before she smacked him.
At first, she assured the young people that it was her father and that he had hit her because he was angry with her. Given the viralization of the video and the rejection of those who believed that it was her partner and therefore an episode of gender violence, the young woman intervened again on TikTok, this time sitting next to her partner. She acknowledged that it was he who had slapped her, but she excused him, assuring that it was an assault agreed upon by both of them, an orchestrated plan to make the recording go viral and thus gain followers and fame.
“Guys, we did all this for money, for fame,” said Simona. “I’m not mistreated. What I did was a show. Do you really think that if he was angry with me, he would give me [the slap] on live if it weren’t for fame?” She added. “No one believes it”, “ask for help”, “do not cover up the aggressor”, those who followed the broadcast responded. “Whoever wants to believe me, believe me, I can’t do more, that’s your opinion, I’ve been honest, I’m going to enjoy what I’ve earned and that’s it,” she said in reference to what supposedly they would have won after going viral.
“I am dying for this woman, if I have fought a lot for this woman,” he denied the mistreatment.
Hours later, the young woman appeared at the police station to report the insults and threats they were receiving through social networks, at which time he was arrested.
