Man charged with assaulting his sister’s partner and damaging police car windscreen

The Hajdúszoboszló District Prosecutor’s Office has filed charges with the Hajdúszoboszló District Court against a man under criminal supervision for causing grievous bodily harm and other offences.

According to the indictment, the defendant had a strained relationship with his brother over ownership of a car, and the two had argued about it on several occasions.

On the morning of 14 August 2025, the man went to his brother’s property in Hajdúszovát, where they got into an argument over the car. The woman’s partner heard the commotion and went out into the yard. The defendant then attacked him, punching him in the face.

The victim sustained injuries that took more than eight days to heal.

On 4 December 2025, at 9 pm, police officers stopped the defendant in Hajdúszoboszló. He refused to take a breathalyser test, so the officers informed him that he would be taken to the police station. The man became enraged and punched the windscreen of the patrol car with considerable force, causing it to crack in a spiderweb pattern. The damage amounted to more than HUF 200,000.

The Hajdúszoboszló District Prosecutor’s Office has charged the man with causing grievous bodily harm, disorderly conduct and criminal damage. In its proposed sentence, the prosecution stated that if the defendant confesses to the offences and waives his right to a trial, the court should sentence him to two years in prison and ban him from exercising public affairs rights for two years.
