I’m happy he was arrested. The fact that he kept coming back for more proved that he was a real problem. Not just a jerk.

Your mom.
How daring that guy's evil touches! Shocking. No wonder Spanish women protested against their football federation bosses who had failed to give them respect!
The guy is Romanian, not Spanish just to make it clear
I wonder how many women he has done this to. Countless, I'm sure.
@@user-bo1rj2xu2s that's for sure. The guy was fearless in front of the camera-- groping her 3 times on on live tv; so what would he fear when nobody's seeing him?
Sexual assault is not a light misbehaviour. I’m so happy he got arrested. His entitlement and shamelessness is crazy.
He just touched her lower back as saying hi. He liked her wanted to ask her out for a drink.
@@rodneyd1168 troll
Someone should cut his hands off
@@rodneyd1168 And he sexually assaulted her which is a crime. You will end up in prison too.
@@rodneyd1168you proud with your comment?
Great work by the production team getting that guy arrested
I think that was the best thing about this. Others stepped in to empower her. Women often make light of it to avoid a kerfuffle. They shouldn’t. It’s a big deal. We ALL need to step up to support the women in our lives.
Yes, of course .... he scarred her for life. Maybe she'll need 10 years of psychotherapy to get over it.
@@SlimForever007 whether she is scarred for life or not is irrelevant... he was a jerk and he assaulted her - if he did THAT to her while on camera, what's he done to other women. You really do need to think carefully about people defending him.
Nah, cucks
I'll testify against him.
I love that the anchor she was talking to called it out. She was uncomfortable and relunctant to address it but decided to stand up for herself. It was great support for her. Good job to them both!
So for anyone who questions why a sexually assaulted woman would report the attack years later, and "why not" seek help/report immediately if it "really had happened", here is a perfect live example of a woman in shock/embarrassment to originally say anything and wishes to just move on. Only after support from a coworker anchor did she then confront her attacker.
@@blouie0 she liked it. @danifranc7011 is an idiot. Thats not how a woman is feeling angry or disturbed by a gesture
@@blouie0 And if it wasn't on camera, armies of men would say she was lying or exaggerating
👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
@@blouie0👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
The way he denied it even after it was caught on camera. This dude deserves to be locked up inside prison.
Maybe he is so stupid that he didn't even realise what he did ever thought of that ? Only someone very stupid would do what he did especially on camera.
People criticize women for smiling and being polite after being harassed. But it’s a reflex because it feels dangerous to escalate the situation or anger the man sometimes, and you just want the moment to be over.
Because like people said. Men bigger, taller, more power physically.
Bro, the amount murder case I read at the news at my country this months is a lot.
@@rock.paper.scissors yes and if you are agreeable some of those predators just use it against you :( they test the water and push and push. Glad he was caught.
She shouldn't smile man and attack him. Instead they smile like they like it...
@@abdullakc bruh its not easy, men are scientifically proven stronger than women, just look at their size difference also he might be carrying a gun or knife etc. this is how women cope to not escalate things in the wrong way and for them not to get hurt,they choose to stay silent, and went along with it so then it will be over. And shes LITERALLY AT WORK SHES TRYING TO BE PROFESSIONAL thats how she cherish her job even getting harassed she still smiled and continued reporting the news
@@abdullakc did you not read the comment you actually left a reply to?
Good for his arrest! Sexual assault is not ok.
Thats badass that the anchor pursued that and the guy eventually got arrested.
he basically pushed it, wasnt happening.

Finally. Great job by the anchorman otherwise it would’ve been a free pass. Poor journalist is used to sexual harassment going unpunished so she just sadly lets the issue pass instead making a fuss on TV and while at work. We need to change this ASAP

@ahadkhannl Shut up brown guy.
The lady reporter was still being nice and professional- which is actually wrong.
Salute to her anchor who wouldn't just let the assault go unnoticed.
He was a loottt bigger than her.
Not sure there is a 'wrong' committed by victims. It's a natural response, likely won't be the first time she's been touched inappropriately and she is probably angry and confused.
@@cofpaddy It looked like she was not fighting hard enough for her right to dignity; exactly what repeat offenders want.
@@marcosolo6491 Well-said.
@@joeabadier I believe if she had reacted angrily the offender would have been pretty pleased with himself also. The reaction from her is irrelevant to this guy. He enjoys the reaction, whatever it is. I do agree with you though - her being nice and professional to him was wrong!
Ironic that she is covering the topic of robbery and gets robbed of her dignity and shamed for being a woman. And the perpetrator thought it was a joke.
@@skyealexander4605 you apparently don't have any women in your life.... not surprising.
@@skyealexander4605predator spotted
@@skyealexander4605he took that risk, don't feel sorry for him
Yes of course, she was robbed of her dignity. Boo-hoo-hoo, she'll never be the same. So sad, so terrible..... boo-hoo-hoo. All the shame. Maybe she'll have to stay at home with her curtains drawn and curl up in her bed in the fetal position. So tragic.
Seems to be a Spanish Football Federation fan 🙄
Glad he was arrested. Hope he stays in prison for long and gets sufficient education and counseling.
In prison for that? 😂😂😂😂
@@followyourideas of course. He did it twice. He's high risk. A serious danger to society. There is every reason to believe that he's capable of rape. Those tendencies have to be nipped in the bud.
Exactly lol
That was a Sexual Assault, he needs to be exposed like the reporter did, Hope she is OK!
In jail he’s finished
Nothing serious happened here.
Lol you guys are ridiculous, acting like she survived a brawl
The frustrating thing is the Isa tried to continue because that’s how oppressed she feels. She felt she had to continue reporting probably out of fear of losing her job.
Whilst we say credit to the anchor man. The story of people not reporting or responding out of fear is almost as scary as the ordeal itself.
she feels so oppressed that she adjusts his position in front of the camera and touches his back and chest, not even two second after he touched her lower back
This is common amongst women who experience these things. That’s why society must stand up for them.
I think Isa just wants to do her job. Not out of feelings of oppression, but because she just wants to do her job.
Dude chill, a MAN came to her defense.
Love how the Anchor Man goes after the offender like a bulldog. Dirt bag offender apologizes only after he's taken to task on air, but still can't resist from assaulting her again. It's in his dna. He needs to be locked up.
That guy should be arrested really that's disgusting and disrespectful to the highest degree
Now international organisations are silent about this issue
This man did what so many, many men do. They feel entitled to touch women whenever or wherever they want to. These men think it is nothing, just shrugging it off as something funny, IT IS SOMETHING! I'm glad he was arrested. Thanks for posting this and a BIG thanks to the man who interrupted the reporter and changed the focus of the story to what just happened to her.
So many men? Dont lump the majority of men into this. Most of us are too afraid to even approach a women these days w/o being accused of something. Not saying what he did was right, just calm down towards the majority of us because its not true.
@@anonymity2882 I wish what you said was true. It is not. Gather 5-6 women together, of all ages and backgrounds, and you will hear a lifetime of what I call "free feels" stories. It happens everywhere, at all ages and in so many situations. I'm glad that you are an exception.
That’s why there’s so few examples for you to mention. You try to generalize all men from all cultures as being this way. In Spain and other parts of Europe it’s far more common. Acting like so many men do this is just a lie. Most men are scared to even approach a female and engage in conversation.
@@user-bo1rj2xu2sthey aren’t an “exception”… you’re just ignorant. It’s like saying all women are liars because one makes false accusations.
@@WarrenPuffet I wish you were correct.
this is so sick, it seemed so normal for this guy to do what he did
It is normal, except where snowflakes neuter such behavior. It's becoming where a man can no longer be a man on the street any more.
"Western Civilisation" at it's finest
It’s a relief that that lowlife was arrested!
Look at how she was ready to just let it pass. It's like deep in their culture.
At frist i was like she no him. But when he ruffled her hair 🤬

Ready to let it pass? Or shock, shame, disbelief and anger.
@@kakkik3756
Your mom.
As a woman, I knew how uncomfortable and scared she was when she laughed right away
'Culture'? It is a DNA sickness which was also spread in the Americas some centuries ago!!!
This guy is dangerous; if he does this in public, it is anybody's guess what he does to unsuspecting victims in private.
It's possible that he's a mentally ill person.
Casual misogyny is a massive problem in a lot of Europe, mainly because boys are raised to believe that they are untouchable little princes by both their parents and their church.
Yes, but I would say it’s not quite as much of a cultural problem here in Scotland.
However my wife grew up in Russia, Ukraine and Poland. This kind of misogyny is especially common in countries where Catholicism holds sway over the population. Boys are raised to believe that they are owed everything by women. Sad but true.
Already made my point about it being mainly countries where the Catholic church holds a lot more power than we’re used to here in the UK.
I can’t speak for Benidorm. But I think you’ll agree that Spain hasn’t exactly shown itself in a particularly feminist light lately.
@@happymaskedguy1943Spain is the most feminist country in the world right now. WTH are you talking about?
@@followyourideas I think you should ask the Spanish women's football team how feminist Spain is.
I think you’re confusing a justified backlash against systemic misogyny with a country being feminist. Where do you think the backlash came from you donkey.
Glad he was arrested! But he acted like as if its not a big deal which means he probably does this all the time! 😤
And this is what happens when instead of firing a person who sexually assaults a woman, you hope that he will resign. You are sending a signal that men can do whatever they want without consequence. I'm thankful for the anchor who questioned what happened and told the camera-operator to film him. This is not the first time that he would have done this. To do this live on air, then lie and said he didn't do it shows how bad things are.
And now the door is open for the most ridiculous comments 🤣
oh no.............................
@TomatoToMaToes69 i wouldn't be surprised if the guy was a muslim lol
He denies it on live tv. Sad that women are made to dress like that to attract viewers on tv and sadder that jerks can get away. He needs to be behind bars for a loooooong time. He had the audacity to make a joke and then touch her again like she is some kind of a doll that he can pet at will. And the man on the other side of the link just asking her to ask the man if he groped her. Yikes makes my blood boil.
the guy is not Spanish, is Romanian
What was wrong with her dress? You belong to same category as that guy in video so please stop using internet for the sake of humanity and go into re-education camp
You lost me when you blamed her coworker who was clearly standing up for her and not letting her just shrug it off like it's something trivial.
That can't be easy for her. The man could have physically hurt her. Her colleagues did the right thing by calling police for her. Now imagine what women go through when there is no live tv and no one the capture the harassment.@@cs4155
100% sure he was on dem xannies
What is wrong with that guy. thank Allah he was arrested.
I’m thanking the people that were there for his arrest.
@@marktomson3338 Thank Allah
They wish he was Muslim
She is incredibly professional, fair and charming. 10 out of 10 for the whole Spanish team!!
Dudes clearly drunk.
That man needs to be heavily fined or jailed.
Honestly I'm not surprised, it's Spain.
Catcalling ladies in the street and harassing them is quite normalised. At least that's what I experienced in my 2 years there
Lie. You never been in Spain in your whole life.
you WISH !
Whilst France forcing women to expose themselves and not cover themselves and remain modest
They dont want you forcing your ideology in tgeir countries.its also your countries and your people who rape the most
If this POS did this on camera just imagine what he does behind closed doors SMH 🤔🤦😡
I thought she handled this with so much dignity. Kudos to her.
at least he got good taste in women ...😛
Bro, women who you think are hot and not hot are unwantedly touched by men all the time and it’s not okay, that could have happened to your mom or your sister, show some respect.
@mifflinfinity well my mom and sisters don't dress like street hookers, what if this guy was mentally ill and thought in his own mind she is inviting him to touch her coz apparently he doesn't look sound and well, a woman knowing her true value doesn't dress like that, also since ur talking about respect how about a woman covering her body to start with ?? It's funny even in Christianity women are told to not expose skin and be decent but I guess Christians simply don't care anymore what God says to them !...
Poor girl. Just trying to do her job. Pervert strikes....she wants to ignore and move on but then anchor pushes her also. Yes justice will be done but now she is dealing with such a huge unnecessary worldwide headache.
I hope this pervert stays in jail. Wonder what happened to him after the arrest
He did it on camera and still tried to deny it. What a clown. Grow Up
The creeps are more young these days 🙄
He isn't young. He is a dirty old man.
I'm extremely sympathetic to the reporter for suffering that,and all women who have and are dealing with this creepy unacceptable behaviour of males like that. Absolutely no need to put up with it ladies, girls,
It makes me embarrassed to be a male, some of the disgusting things men do. It's every where and not just Spain. Bringing exposure to this and similar behaviour will help deter at least this. Hope she's ok. 👍🇺🇦🇬🇧
This is unacceptable behavior. I’m glad it was addressed because he appeared to be escalating
Crime of the century.
She was so professional,she even continued working despite that. That man belongs behind bars
Please stop criticizing the woman for smiling and trying to make everything look okay. It’s a quick coping or defense mechanism. If you haven’t gone through it yourself, just trust the ones who have, when we tell you that it’s a response out of fear. Please please have some empathy.
There isn’t really a “right” or “wrong” reaction to assault. The only wrong this is the offender who assaults.
She was rather calm. I remember a Lebanese reporter started to scream like crazy.
shes professional reporter
People handle trauma differently, it’s not just fight or flight- some people freeze or go numb in a way and from what I’ve experienced this is more common in people who have had to deal with a lot of trauma
What*s the problem with that predator?
This makes me so mad, why can’t some people keep their hands to themselves?
First of all, she looks not modest
Second Spain is home to immortality. Also On some beaches in the West, you can see women without clothes
you must be a muslim
El tipo tiene un problema grave de conducta.
That guy needs to be left behind bars. Very dangerous.
That's so freaking insane. Didn't he saw the camera? I think he's high.
Arrested for that? Whatever
It's can be classed as sexual assault
for being white male
No it cannot @@Judgementxxx
@@Solonas-gv8ib Actually yes it can

Here in America, we can't even politely ask a woman out on a date, let alone touch them.

This poor reporter will have some psychological issues in the long run cuz of this traumatic incident she just experienced.
No, Spain is not exactly India.
A little perspective please snowflake.
She might get "some psycological issues in the long run" if she gets into a head on collision going home or finds her home burn't down with a child in it while she was at work.
I am sorry for this bitter incident
This is sexual assault, what Luis did was not. Huge difference.
I feel sorry for her, she didn't what to do she thought it was her fault and when the man ask about it she was like ashamed to say that she was actually being a victim of sa
What a tragic incident! Let’s hope these events do not occur in the future.
these things happen all the time but now are being caught on camera more often.
I must have missed something, who died?
@philchadwick9470 yes, you did miss something! The point!
@@kerriemcallister6615 the point I was making is that language is important. Nobody died, so 'tragic' is being used inappropriately, if you weren't so busy blowing a fuse over the footage you might have seen that point. As this is, relatively speaking, a very trivial news report (I'm surprised Al Jazeera bothered with it) I'll not be back. I'm sure your reply would be entertaining though.
@@philchadwick9470 oh I'm sure you will be sorely missed, have a nice day 😊 ☺️
Oh my God. The nerve !
He touched her then had the audacity to touch her head like that after denying it
And people still think Spain doesn't have a sexual harassment problem? Not trying to single out the country, specifically, but given everything going on with the national women's soccer team, this just furthers the point
Maybe - though I heard the guy is Romanian (which says nothing about Romania either).
It’s everywhere. It’s not a Spain problem, a country problem, or even linked to class. Sexual abuse happens in every imaginable circle.
that was on the back !!! wtf is this ? She didnt even knw she was "sexually abused" until her boss told her.
She was really calm about it.
The reporter didn't have problem with it initially unless she was asked about it
He looks Algerian..
Romanian
Irrelevant
@@Al-Shaheedi Many Algerians lie about their ethnicity they especially say Moroccan, they speak Russian, and are obsessed with Romanian area, are you sure? Look up DJ Snake. He is Algerian.
What the f---. Guys like him give guys in general a bad name.
This is awful to watch. Why did he do that? As a father to girl child, had that happened to my baby girl, I would be the one going to jail while this lunatic is taken to the hospital. You cannot just touch a lady like that, particularly while she is working, even not; you just cannot do that. But, I am glad he was arrested.
Totally unacceptable and disrespectful behaviour, topped by an attitude of entitlement.
The problem with women is that they don't fight back. If her colleague didn't call out the incident, they guy would just be let off. And she is still trying to be kind to him during the confrontation. women need to start carrying pepper spray and bear spray at all times!
You sound like a rapist.....fighting back. What that man did was wrong period
Did you see how big that guy was compared to the girl!? We're taught not to fight back for OUR safety. He clearly knows he as the physical advantage on her and wasn't afraid to use it. Stop blaming women for what men does.
And what do you think he'll do if he fought back? The guy's taller and more physically advantaged. Think he's just gonna run home and cry? Give me a break. The problem is that men don't know how to keep it in their pants. Period.
@@ToudaHell We don't live in a fairytale land where if you tell bad guys to stop being bad, they stop being bad.
@cs4155 it's not a fairy tale for men to keep their hands to themselves until invited. My bestfriends dog knows that why can't human males?
I swear, if i was there and saw that, i would've freaking smack his face so hard and scold him that he should be ashamed for touching that woman. It disgusts me how some people think that this is ok 😠
No, you wouldn't have done those things. You would either be oblivious to it or at best have said something. If you'd assaulted him you also would have commited a crime and that's just a stupid way to go about it
it staged.
Think outside the box....you don't see this happen on TV ever....and for it to zoom in on her and guy...and continue filming Instead of addressing off air....tells you something.... majority of the time it's not leave they edit for bloopers....
It is definitely not ok to hit people in the face.
As for the woman, she touches him right back. Two times. First from behind, then his chest.
I am equally disgusted. I would have stood between him and the girl and given him a lesson in what he had just done wrong and contacted the police myself. Assaulting him in return missed the point. In these situations you must lawfully use appropriate responses to the risk and situation at hand. Hitting him is reducing yourself to the same level as him. He is lucky her male friend or father or husband if she has one wasn’t there because emotions would have gotten the better of them.
Literally caught red handed
Thankfully, he was not an Arab or a Pakistani... at least this time
@GalvatronDeceptive what is a subhuman ?
People looking like him are not allowed near schools. I mean did he look in the mirror before leaving his mothers house?
She is trying to play victim, when in fact she probably enjoyed it 😂😂
That is a common misunderstanding by men. I saw the footage and there is nothing that I saw that look like she enjoyed it. So it’s a very wild card guess. Maybe ask her or other women who have been in that situation if they enjoyed it. Or perhaps read up about a thing called theory of mind, the ability to put yourselves in someone else’s mind. It’s a part of mature thinking that requires a person to be authentically empathetic
I’m gonna say, no, she didn’t enjoy it. If it happened to your partner, mother, sister, niece, daughter, would you say the same thing?
@@marktomson3338 women are known liars.. look at all the gold diggers claiming they were raped 20, 30 years ago, only to come out now, accusing rich celebrities of this and that, trying to get millions of dollars off them .
