Hotel Migrant Beat Woman Unconscious After She Rejected Him

2 min read

A hotel migrant from Eritrea punched a 20 year-old woman unconscious outside a Bournemouth nightclub after she rejected his advances. The Telegraph has more.

Abdoela Berhan, 35, punched Cleo Lake, 20, in the face after she told him to “f— off” outside a Bournemouth nightclub in the early hours of December 7th 2024.

Berhan, an Eritrean national, was found guilty of assault but did not attend court. There are already two warrants for his arrest for an assault in a Subway restaurant, and for criminal damage to a police cell.

Lake and her friends had been to the Cameo nightclub in Dorset and were eating some food outside when Berhan approached them, and tried to put his arm around one of them.

She told Poole magistrates’ court: “He tried to sit down with us, I got uncomfortable because none of us knew who he was, it was dark and there was no one else around.

“I told him to f— off and he didn’t like it. We were arguing, swearing at each other, and he got rather close so I shoved him back. He turned around and kicked me, but missed, then I kicked him.”

Footage of the attack was shown to the court. It showed Berhan punch Lake in the face, who fell to the ground as he ran off. Lake believes she was unconscious for about five minutes.

She was taken to hospital by ambulance but went home after waiting four hours to be seen, and later went to see her GP.

Lake, who suffered a broken nose in the attack, told the court: “After I didn’t go out for a while. I got quite a bit of bad anxiety around men. I just felt really uncomfortable around them.”

District Judge Orla Austin said she was satisfied Berhan was guilty of assault and issued a warrant for his arrest.

Daily Sceptic seems reluctant to caption its pictures. We are left to assume that the man in the top picture is the culprit, and that the woman in the bottom picture is the woman he attacked. And there is nothing in the article to substantiate the headline claim that he was “Hotel migrant”. Careless, and harmful to DS’s credibility.

Of course he beat her up. It’s his culture. How dare we criticise him for being multi-cultural.

So has he had a hand cut off yet? If not why not!

If this isn’t a kick in the teeth whilst rubbing salt in your wounds I don’t know what is. What kind of judge would call this justice? The poor guy has since left Germany and I can’t say I blame him;

”A migrant was awarded German citizenship after stabbing German comedian Nikita Miller five times inside the Bremen central train station in an attack that Miller nearly did not survive, according to a German media interview with Miller.
During the interview with Express newspaper, Miller conveyed disbelief that the migrant who nearly killed him not only received German citizenship but was also released the same night as the bloody stabbing attack.

“Nothing has been done so far. The perpetrator was released the same night with the statement: ‘He no longer poses any danger,’” Miller told SWR.

During the interview, Miller describes the incredible logic deployed by the German justice system, which argued that since Miller did not die, it was not attempted murder. Miller told the court that he only survived because he successfully fought back during the random attack. The suspect’s charge was dropped to the less serious charge of bodily harm.
During the 20-second fight, Miller suffered 5… Read more »

People are beginning to see that the reason so many Third World Ethnics, especially Muslims and Ethnic Africans, target White Children, join Rape Gangs, ply Ethnic European men, women and children with drugs, date-rape drugs, drugged alcoholic drinks, kidnap them, call them “racist” for rejecting their advances, beat them unconscious or kill them if all else fails, is because the rapists are so vile, hideous, animalistic, stinking and nauseatingly repulsive, that no Ethnic European in their right mind would ever sleep with them voluntarily.

After I didn’t go out for a while. I got quite a bit of bad anxiety around men.

I’ve been the target of quite a few violent assaults over the course of the last 15 years alone and all of the really bad ones were committed by men. Yet, I haven’t so far simply blamed men as supposedly homogenuous group of violent individuals for this because it’s just too obvious that the by far overwhelming majority of men aren’t the kind of a**holes who do something like this.

The group of men who wouldn’t ever do this is certainly much larger for “Lake” because violence against women is a taboo in European culture and since she certainly knows this, she should be thoroughly ashamed of herself for spouting this kind of vicious propaganda based on a single event involving a very specific kind of individual.

Agreed, but there definitely are a minority group of younger European men who do sometimes assault women. She may well have seen this happen, although you are correct to say that she shouldn’t tar everyone with the same brush.

There are obviously also violent criminals of European descent. But partially, these have been re-barbarized by the company they had to grow up with, eg, the Hip Hop scene which tends to glorify drug abuse, sex and often violent crimes
and they’re outliers who aren’t representative.

Culturally, violence against men is usually at least tolerated and sometimes even considered outright necessary, violence against women decidedly isn’t, all lying of woke lesbians competing with men for potential sex partners notwithstanding.

I’d suggest that what one says in a victim statement is not one would say in a forum on men and women, any more than the hobbies one claims in a job interview are what one actually spends one weekends doing.

She wasn’t “spouting propaganda” she was giving evidence in court, about how the attack affacted her.

She was using some public forum available to air her theory that she wasn’t attacked by an individual with a very specific origin and history but that she had become a victim of generic “male violence”. It’s possible that she has been so thoroughly brainwashed into the wokeverse that she actually believed that herself but I have little trust in the honesty of these people. She’s either very gullible and stupid or lying or gullible, stupid and lying.

It did nothing to deserve her passive aggression. Yet, she included me in it. Plus, I have suffered much more brutal violence than a single attack from some individual which then ran off in the past. Consequently, I have little sympathy for her: Her fate is neither unique nor was it particularly terrible. Everyday minor assault the police needs to deal with. The guilty individual ought to be punished and then sent back where he came and that’s it.

You have a wonderful abiility to read things that weren’t actually said. Do you think she should have said she felt uncomfortable arond Eritreans, migrants, or just blacks in general? She didn’t say anything about “generic male violence”, she simply related how the attack had affected her.

You have a pretty poor ability to lie about statements other people made, in this case specifically

I got quite a bit of bad anxiety around men. I just felt really uncomfortable around them.

As supposed statement of fact, this is not credible because her experience was simply not that extraordinary and there’s no reason why she should be looking in fright at people totally unrelated to it. There must obviously a reason why she wanted to claim that neverthless and unless I see some evidence to the contrary, I’m going to assume that this was the political reason I already mentioned.

Yes.she was obviouly just making it up, under the influence of the wokerati. And she said this in court – perhaps you’d like to start proceedings for perjury!

Feeling anxiety isn’t quite the same as spouting vicious propaganda.

As I understand it, the point is that she didn’t say she felt anxiety about Third World Ethnic men attacking her. She tried to blame ALL MEN, which is ridiculous.

All the doctors and nurses were seeing patients in the migrant hotels.
