A man who assaulted a female police officer with his penis has been fined.
Marium Varinauskas, 28, tried to strike the officer on the head with his penis
when she was called out to his flat, but she got out of the way.
Lithuanian Varinauskas admitted a charge of assault at Aberdeen Sheriff Court
and was fined 600.
The court heard he had been drinking heavily and could not remember committing
the offence at his home in Aberdeen.
Police were called to his home by his girlfriend, who had complained about him
being drunk last November.
They arrived to find the self-employed engineer sitting on the sofa wearing a
pair of underpants.
He apologises profusely and is extremely embarrassed
John Hardie Defence solicitor
Fiscal depute Elaine Lynch said: "The accused got to his feet and was standing
over the police officer exposing his penis and thrusting it in her face,
forcing her to take evasive action to avoid getting struck."
Defence solicitor John Hardie said: "He was sitting on the couch drunk with his
pants on.
"He can't remember anything but accepts that if that's what the police say then
that's what happened.
"He has never been so drunk before that day and accepts he has to take full
responsibility. He apologises profusely and is extremely embarrassed."
His not guilty plea to committing a breach of the peace by uttering offensive
and sexual remarks was accepted by the Crown.
Sheriff Annella Cowan was told that the Lithuanian had now quit binge drinking
because of the incident.
