Outrage as drunk Romanian thugs swing frail Bucharest pensioner around by her dressing gown as she screams in terror



Police are hunting a group of Romanian thugs behind this shocking video that shows them grabbing an elderly woman and swinging her around as she screams in terror.

The video shows the young men standing outside a bar apparently in the village of Jilava, in the Romanian county of Ilfov, near the capital Bucharest.



They are speaking Romanian together in-between laughing as one of their number spins the terrified woman, who is wearing what appears to be a dressing gown, around in the street.

They then collapse in laughter as she attempts to escape, visibly disorientated.

Terrified: An elderly Romanian woman screams as she is grabbed by a drunken yob who then swings her around in the street Video shows the frail pensioner being swung around by her dressing gown outside a bar as she screams in terror

Sick joke: The man's friends are heard shouting 'spin her more! Spin her more' and 'again, again' followed by 'run and catch her, do it again' and 'that's so cool man'

The spinner is then shown proudly flexing his muscles in front of his friends after the attack as the old woman stumbles off.

His friends are heard shouting: 'Spin her more! Spin her more' and 'Again, Again' followed by 'Run and catch her, do it again' and 'that's so cool man.'

The young man then runs after her and repeats the joke before rejoining his pals, this time leaving her to run off still screaming and terrified as the video ends.

The video which was uploaded on Facebook yesterday afternoon quickly spread like wildfire on local social media platforms, where it came to the attention of police, who confirmed they had had a complaint and were looking into the video to see if those involved should face assault charges.

A local police spokesperson said: 'We are looking into this incident. We want to know when this video was shot, where it was shot and who the people were in the video.

' A report will then be prepared for prosecutors who will decide what action to take.'

Facebook users identified the spinner as the user named Eu Geo Offycyall (I'm Geo, Official Page), where a portrait picture shows a young man with a close resemblance to the man dubbed granny spinner.

And the Eu Geo Offycyall profile was then used to write under the video posted on Facebook that anyone who didn't like him could get lost.

He said: 'Why the f*** do you write these comments, you slaves? I’ll p*** on you! What the f*** is it with these comments? It was just a joke. She wasn’t dying.

'If you don’t like it, I’ll give you my phone number and you can call me.'

One user named as Maria Myrabela wrote: 'I don’t know how people can like this! It is just ugly!'

Another named Madda Dumitru, said: 'What happens in this video is not funny... may god help you. Maybe something like this will happen to you too.'
