According to a report from the Spanish police via EFE news agency:
“After insulting her and shouting in hear ear to go back to her country, (the aggressor) started to strike her with increasing aggressiveness until the train stopped. He got off while screaming racially-charged insults at the girl.”
Twenty-one year old Sergi Xavier Martinez Martinez did not deny that the assault occurred, though he said that he was very drunk and impaired during the attack.
The assault was captured by video cameras mounted on the train. Part of the video can be seen below as part of a Spanish television news report on the incident.

If Catalonia is not spain...
ReplyDeletethis boy is not spanish.
thank you for clearing that up, anon 1. for a minute there, I was afraid that Spanish people were capable of abuse.
ReplyDeleteThe Spanish boy in the form of a devil has to punished immediately. The affected girl has to kick him like what he did. Then he should be hanged. This has to be a lesson for all the idiotic racist around the world even in this century

ReplyDelete"women should be respected and the guy who cant do that should be taught . i swear to god if it was a guy from India who did that i would have increased the number of bones in his body and decreased his number of teeth. that guy should be given a proper punishment otherwise GOD wont forgive any of us.and what about the other guy sitting next why didn't he move his finger against this animal i believe Indians are better... "
other than in America, there is the poor and the rich; if rich is white, they are racist for the most part.they act just like Hitler; white supremacy. unfortunately..
ReplyDeletethe white white WILL BE SENT to jail for at least 10 years, WITH NO PROBATION IN MY BOOK.
RACISM IS STRONGER IN OTHER COUNTIRES THAN IN USA TODAY...bodie9
if they let the guy free after 1 day; the police in spain and the govt is a piece of crap; there is no respect for life anymore;
ReplyDeleteone is not born a racist ; racism is an evil that we learn from others.
Iam really shocked to see this video, I thought Spanish people are gentle and good people, it is sad to see people hating just for hatred sake.
ReplyDeleteThis is a clear example of social missconduct , which has to be addressed as it happens by any and all means .
ReplyDeleteIf it is allowed to occur with out any restraint others will see the same video and committ the same or worse act ,Knowing as show by the man sitting near ( No one will stop me )No one will get involved .
I know he is not sleeping well
Spain is not know for being the friendliest place on earth when it comes to immigrants, specially those of colour.
ReplyDeleteRacist groups such as "los cabeza rapada" (skin heads) are too common in Spain.
Spain colonized about 80 of what is now known as the American Continent, and most people from the spanish speaking countries in the Americas feel that Spain is "La Madre Patria" (the mother land) therefore they tend to immigrate back to Spain.
Spain was under muslim control for over 800 years, after they freed themselves they automatically create a hate towards anyone who doesn't look or sound like them, specially those whose skin is brown.
I don't know why people from Spain hate so much immigrants..I guess the forgat when spanish came to America rape and kill our Indians, took all our gold and change our identity...they need to get over themselves and move on..NO YOU GUYS ARE NOT GODS!!!!
ReplyDeletemy bf is colombian and he said its like that in a lot of parts of south america but more so in spain. i cant believe the other guy tat is just sitting there just watching what another looser.
ReplyDeleteI am from Spain. Some of the comments I read here are not correct. Spanish people and authorities were shocked at the brutality shown. This is not a racist country where especially Latin Americans are welcome and enjoy living and working. Refer to Spanish media coverage and find the reaction. I am ashame of that coward act that could take place anywhere.
ReplyDeleteI am from Ecuador and I can not believe what that bastard did...someone needs to find him and bit the s*** out of him. It is not only the racist factor that is in play it is also gender...He hit a young girl for God's sake.
ReplyDeleteI live in the US.and the country especially the south is somewhat racist, but I don't think that anyone would physically abuse someone that way.
The ecuadorian government needs to do something of more significance than to just send a letter. If they do not react to this situation, people are going to feel free to do worse stuff against other people.
I have heard of spanish people to be racist, but never of racist abusive idiots like that.
People that believe themselves to be superior because of their skin color are just ignorants, especially now a days.
I can not believe so much stupidity in one person like that man.
He grabbed her breast!
ReplyDeleteThat's sexual assault!
Aaaah...those civilized Europeans.
ReplyDeleteThank goodness they spread their civility upon the planet!
See, and what a better world it is.
Sb saw the new RACIST ATTACK? In Spain again? this is so embarrasing and sad...WHAT HAPPEN WITH PPL? WHATS THE PBL IF THERE´S ANOTHER HUMAN BEING FROM ANOTHER COUNTRY WORKING OR STUDYING IN "THEIR" COUNTRY? Hey..Wake up n care about urself doing the best for u* Leave in peace to good ppl, leave them to live their own lives* Ah..question,the guy in this video here? He is FREE?¡¡ Ppl killing ppl* Where r they going? Jul31/08
ReplyDeleteAs an educator in the states, headlines like these are truly disturbing. I teach students to respect others and to find what unites us rather than the differences that can separate us. I am Ecuadorian and was thinking of traveling to Spain next year. Stories like these make me think twice. Why should I be concerned traveling to another country just because of my heritage? I do not understand why there is so much hatred....what is our world coming to? Have we not learned from our past? Can someone explain why Ecuadorians are being targeted? There was a new attack this week...girl on girl...I feel this attack was even more brutal.
ReplyDeletePlease do not go to Spain. Spain does not need any more dirty visitors from South America. Those of you who are calling for this boy to be hanged (like the dumb-ass from India) are the The people who should be punished for seeking such a disproportionate punishment. The boy was clearly drunk and his senses were impaired. Besides, he didn't even hit the girl hard. She walked away just fine, unlike the hundreds of white people who are attacked every year in the USA and Europe by dirty illegals.
ReplyDelete~Treat others like you would like to be treated~ Apparently Joe here likes to be kicked in the face AND the knads. In addition to this he doesn't care much if the females in his life get sexually assaulted and physically/verbally abused. Thanks Joe for proving Bush isn't alone as the most ignorant man on this planet. Have a wonderful day!
ReplyDeleteMr. Joe, I do not know where your mind comes from, but to tell you the truth you need realize that this man committed a crime. If you hit someone is called an Assault. If you are under the influence of alcohol it is called being intoxicated in a public place (kind of like drinking & driving). I do not know how your laws back home are governed, but here in Toronto it seems like your people are the dirty visitors from Spain who follow the laws here.
ReplyDeleteAs for the young girl getting kicked in the face and walking out without a scratch, I'm 100% sure you would not like it if you were to see me kicked the shit out of your girlfriend or wife and at the end grab her breast to make me feel electrifying.
Canada opens its doors for people from Spain to escape the madness and the bullshit that goes on in your country. When Spaniards enter my country we consider them not dirty immigrants but just immigrants in general and we as Canadians citizens, residents, landed immigrants, or immigrants treat them with respect because here in Canada it is a multicultural country which their ethnic backgrounds culture, race, gender and values are appreciated. Sure there are times when people break the rules, but when the law is broken you are criminally responsible despite the severity. In addition safety for the victims is priority regardless of their ethnic background or if they get assaulted without a scratch. And that’s something your people have when they enter this country.

ReplyDelete"DIRTY VISITORS FROM SOUTH AMERICA" hmm JOE let me quote you on that one. Because if I am not mistaken, clearly the visitors who came to beautiful South America were the Spaniards, way back in the Earlier days.
ReplyDeleteYou obviously have no morals, education or a mind at all.
"THE BOY WAS CLEARLY DRUNK" let me quote you again so you can realize how ignorant you. First of all that's a man. Well atleast close enough to look like one. And second of all, DRUNK. That does not justify him for doing that.
Joe like this other fool on the video don't HAVE a "mind". I'm surprised he even knows how to write.
just food for though..likewise in the USA...Arizona leaders are against the mexicans. LET ME REMIND YOU THAT MANY STATES TODAY LIKE CALIFORNIA,ARIZONA, TEJAS UTAH...AND MANY OTHER USA TERRITORIES BELONGED TO SPANISH /MEXICO AT INE TIME.THE TRUE NORTH AMERICANS OR USAIANS ARE THE NATIVE AMERICAN INDIANS WHO PHYSICALLY LOOK LIKE THE MEXICAN IMMIGRANTS. !!!!THE CAUCASIAN WHITE MALES/FEMALES ARE NOT THE TRUe AMERICANS,( they are our immigrants role models) THEY STOLE THE LANDS FROM THE NATIVE NORTH AMERICAN INDIANS ..WHY IS THE STEREOTYPE IS BECAUSE YOU ARE WHITE, THEREFORE YOU ARE AMERICAN AND YOU SHOULD BE RESPECTED MORE THAN A "CHOLO" FROM MEXICO WHO IN REALITY LOOKS LIKE THE TRUE NORTH AMERICANS( NATIVE AMERICAN INDIANS). ARIZONA POLICE SHOULD BE AGAINST THE WHITE IMMIGRANTS LOGICALLY THINKING..AMERICANS SHOULD BE CALLED LOGICALLY USAIANS, BECAUSE MEXICANS AND ALL OTHER CENTRAL AMERICANS AND SOUTH AMERICANS ARE ALL AMERICANS.I THINK AMERICA NEEDS EDUCATION IN TODAYS DATE. MOST IMPORTANT MAY I REMIND YOU THE GREATEST MAN WHO EVER EXISTED ON THIS EARTH MAY NOT HAVE BEEN PHYSICALLY WHITE AND FROM THE MIDDLE EAST..."JESUS CHRIST"....HAHAHAHA,,,,JUST WAIT TILL THE ALIENS COME TO EARTH, WE WILL ALL FORGET ABOUT RACISM.......I HAVE BEEN IN THIS COUNTRY 45 YEARS AND LIVED ALL OVER, I TELL YOU I CAN WRITE A BOOK..
ReplyDeleteI agree the punishment should have been to have him tied to a chair and groped then kicked. End of story, no money wasted on jailing him. Then place a tattoo on his forehead "INFECTED WITH RACISM". After one year if he has proven himself worthy the tattoo could be removed but only if he has shown he had learned his lesson. If the law would not do that then at least make him and his family suffer by taking away their property and awarding it to the girl. A message must be sent that hate is an emotion you either keep to yourself or channel into good by talking about it and trying to realize why you have it. If he is so "oppressed" and pissed then go kick some rich banker or corporate CEO or a parliament member. That would never happen because he would either have his neck broke(if lucky) or most likely shot by secret protective police. Everyone is an immigrant or has a right to be. The earth belongs to every human, every animal, every plant. If you do not like humans, or animals or plants, then literally LEAVE the planet!
ReplyDeleteSPAINISH ARE BY NATURE COWARDS ,RACIST AND BARBERIANS , WHO BURNT MOOR WOMEN AND CHILDREN ALIVE..PERIOD ,,SPAINIARDS ARE CURSED FOR LIFE AND WILL NEVER PROPSPER..
ReplyDelete@JOE, you are a fool and a beast for saying your poor country does not need dirty visitors from South America. May God have mercy on you.
ReplyDeleteoh yes Indians are so much better than why are they coming to the violent USA by the shit load..they treat women so well in India, gives us a break, first no one asked you this is about this coward. I bet he would not of done that to a man. I went to Madrid and couldn't wait to get the hell out and back to the USA. In nite clubs the guys dance with each other and they all look like race horses. I mean men from spain are ugly. Spanards have always been racist, read their history.
ReplyDeletelisten dirt bag white Joe, if that would of been your daughter, or a loved one you would be singing a different tune to piece of crap and you are right we should stay out of spain you get sick as hell if you drink their water, they serve three day old bread in eating places, they don't smile and always have that constipated look...they want to be white so bad they marry their mamas and sisters to stay white. now lets talk about all the spanards in the USA as oppose to how many americans living in spain. we did not invite you. so get your brainless head out of your ass and if you don't like what I said well stick to the spanish only web since you spanards are soooo spanish and this goes for the rest of you that think with your ass
ReplyDeleteConsidering that the spanish people are 2% arab and some 30% Berber, that guy should face the chair.
ReplyDeleteMe ?
I am a blond and blue eyed european guy and would gladly take that bastard on face to face.
This.. is Shocking. I have always adored Spain, being a Real Madrid & Spain fan. I have always wanted to become a Sports Journalist in Spain and I am from India.
ReplyDeleteIs THIS what I thought Spain would be? I mean, I thought Spaniard were one of the best people on Earth. Why is there so much hatred. I don't get it.
And I'm happy to see people uniting against the stupid as***** Joe, boy, what an idiot.
I just want everyone to be treated equally, everyone to be happy. But that ain't possible with people like Joe living in the world.
Peace out! \m/
I guess Spain is not the place to visit on your tour of Europe .
ReplyDeleteAlot of Spanish Nazis there from the old Franco days.
