He Proposed And She Said 'NO' Then He Punched Her In The Face

A thug turned up at his girlfriend's work to pop the question - and punched her in the face when she said no.

Andrei Pavel left Andrea Nagy with “significant injuries” in the horror attack after splashing out on an engagement ring and a bunch of flowers.

Following his arrest Pavel, who has no previous convictions, told police officers he was upset by the rejection.

Now he has been banned from contacting his victim for a year after pleading guilty to assault by beating.


North Staffordshire Justice Centre heard Pavel and Nagy had been in an “intense” relationship for three months and had moved in together before hitting a rocky patch.

But Pavel, from Stoke-on-Trent, Staffs, was keen to get things back on track and turned up at Nagy’s workplace on July 21 to propose.

Prosecutor Ruth Bentley said: “She described the relationship as intense. She moved in with him after two months but the relationship broke down and they split up.

“Since that time he had been contacting her via texts. He did not want the relationship to end. He was trying to get it back on track, and even purchased a ring and asked her to marry him.

“She was handed a note at work, which said the defendant wanted to speak to her. She met the defendant who was waiting outside with a bunch of flowers.”

The court heard Pavel proposed to Nagy but she said no.

Bentley added: “He punched her to the face, knocking her to the floor for a matter of seconds. She was left with an injury to her face.”

The court heard Nagy said she was scared of the defendant and described him as jealous and controlling.

Court Sentences Samsung Heir To 5 Years Jail Over Bribery And Other Crimes

A bribery and cronyism scandal that has already toppled a South Korean president has claimed a major business scalp after a court sentenced Lee Jae-yong, the acting chairman of Samsung, to five years in prison after finding him guilty of offering bribes and other crimes.

The billionaire, who is South Korea’s third-richest man and heir to the Sprawling Samsung empire, had been accused of making large donations to foundations run by a close friend and confidante of the deposed South Korean president, Park Geun-hye, in return for political favours.


The court said Lee had provided bribes anticipating support from Park, who was still president at the time, according to South Korea’s Yonhap news agency.


The court also found Lee guilty of hiding assets abroad, embezzlement and perjury.

Lee’s lawyers are expected to appeal, and the case could end up being decided by the country’s supreme court, possibly next year.


While the 49-year-old, who is also known as Jay Y Lee, was spared the 12-year term demanded by prosecutors, his sentence is the longest given to any South Korean chaebol leader.

Terrorist Blow Themselves Up Rather Than Surrender To Police (Photo)

This is the moment a suspected terrorist cell opted to blow themselves up rather than surrender to police. 

Police had tracked the four extremists to a house in the village of Psedach in south western Russia's Republic of Ingushetia, where they ordered the men to surrender.

However, rather than give themselves up, the group opted to set of a bomb which destroyed their hideout, killing all four of them.

The gang of extremists had been hunted by the Russian secret services in connection with the attempted murder of policemen.


Federal Security Service operatives surrounded their hideout, and the group began shooting at the officers, who returned fire.

Photos show how the huge explosion from their suicide bombs ripped the roof off the little cottage.

No one else was injured in the blast, which was captured in footage taken by Russian national anti-terrorism committee.

The terrorists were believed to be members of the Khunzakh militant group.
