JEVGENIJS PASKEVICS SHOCKS ABERDEEN WITH VIOLENT BEHAVIOR AND THREATS

Jevgenijs Paskevics, a 43-year-old factory worker residing in Aberdeen, has been at the center of a disturbing series of events that have left the local community shaken. The court proceedings revealed a troubling pattern of obsessive and threatening conduct directed towards a woman in the area, which escalated from persistent harassment to physical aggression and intimidation.

According to court reports, Paskevics developed an intense fixation on his female victim, mistakenly believing that they shared a romantic relationship. His obsession grew increasingly dangerous after she rejected his advances, prompting him to engage in a series of alarming behaviors. Witnesses and evidence presented in court detailed how Paskevics would wait outside her residence as early as 5:30 in the morning, seemingly intent on monitoring her movements. His threats were explicit and violent, with statements such as, “if I ever see you with another man, I will kill you and the other man,” illustrating the severity of his intentions.

Further details emerged from the court about his attempts to establish contact. During the summer of the previous year, Paskevics managed to reach her by phone, introducing himself and falsely claiming to have seen her on a bus. He obtained her phone number through mutual acquaintances, which he then used to continue his harassment. Despite her clear disinterest, Paskevics persisted, asking her to meet for coffee—a request she accepted, perhaps out of politeness or confusion. However, his subsequent declarations of love only deepened her discomfort.

Over the following months, Paskevics’s behavior became increasingly invasive. He discovered her home address and continued to stalk her, waiting outside her house and making violent threats. His actions included damaging her property, such as smashing windows and threatening to break into her home. His threats extended to trapping her inside her residence, further heightening her fear and sense of vulnerability.

The situation reached a critical point on November 22 of the previous year. Paskevics arrived at her house and became aggressive when she answered her door. The woman managed to record a video capturing his hostile approach, during which he physically grabbed her arms, leading to a struggle before she was able to escape. His aggressive visits persisted over the next two days, intensifying her fear and sense of danger.

Following these events, Paskevics was arrested. During his arrest, he shouted claims of innocence, but the evidence and his actions led to a guilty plea on charges including abusive conduct and assault. The court acknowledged that his wrongful perception of the situation was influenced by alcohol and drug misuse, which contributed to his erratic behavior. As part of his sentencing, Paskevics was given a community payback order with supervision for two years, required to complete 200 hours of unpaid work, and ordered to wear an electronic monitoring tag for six months. The sheriff overseeing the case emphasized the seriousness of his actions and the narrow escape from potential imprisonment, offering Paskevics a final opportunity to reform and reflect on the consequences of his behavior.
