Hi

I was charged with abh. the story is that the i was in a night club and when coming from the toilet and walk to the dance floor with my friend i barged a girl by accident. I turned round and said sorry and she shouted at me and threw her drink in my face i then retailiated and threw mine back at the . She then grabbed my hair and we fell to the floor scruffling. The bouncers and my friend broke it up. we then got thrown out. Whilst waiting outside for my other friends to come out. this point they didnt even no what had happened. I got arrested for abh. the poice women said she has serious injuries to her face.

When questioned at the police station they said she has had stitches in her chin as i threw my glass at her when i didnt !

I am now charged with abh i will plea not guilty of course next week. I was hoping when they see the cctv they will realise she is lying but the club have no cctv of it ! no bouncers want to make a statement neither the club manager . Great ! so its a case of her word and ger friends against mine. I had a bruise to my eye and thigh which i took photos of. She probable hit her chin on the floor when we fell. the fight all lasted for a maximum of probably 10 seconds before it was broken up !

what do you think will happen in court im just scared that im going to get found guilty for something i didnt do. when she started the whole thing !
