Brutality! Hungarian man arrested for breaking a child’s bones

The Prosecution Office of Kaposvár indicted a 32-year-old man for physical abuse against a one-and-a-half-year-old child. The little boy was abused to the extent that several of his bones were broken. There have been quite a lot of cases of child abuse this year in Hungary. 

In the announcement, the Prosecution Office wrote that the 32-year-old man hurt the son of his partner several times. He is accused of repeated grievous bodily harm. The 21-year-old mother is also accused of endangering the life of her son. The prosecutor proposes imprisonment and disqualification from public affairs, writes telex.hu.

In May 2020, the defendant moved in together with his partner, with whom they were raising the one-and-a-half-year-old son of the woman, who was born from her previous relationship. During this time, the little kid was very often fussy and he cried a lot, which bothered the defendant.

He tried to make the child stop crying by brutal methods: on several occasions, he slapped him hard on his face and on his body – he even threw the baby into his crib from a 40-50cm distance.
