Bergen County Prosecutor Grewal states that the above charges are merely an accusation and that the defendant is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. Prosecutor Grewal would also like to thank the Midland Park Police Department for their assistance in this investigation.
I learned from the documentary about the O.J. Simpson case (regarding the one that put him in jail in Nevada) that it’s legally considered kidnapping if you point a gun and tell the person not to leave. They don’t have to be taken anywhere.
Keeping someone against their will.
Wonder why all these websites that have written about him have conveniently left out that this was a domestic violence case. Oh I know why, because then it would not have the same effect they’re going for now. Shame on you for reporting half truths.

Yes I did notice that, someone walks in a police station and makes atrocious accusations and the prosecutor sends out an email to all media news outlets because apparently it’s a slow news day in New Jersey. How is it that we damn these people straight to hell without hearings and trials? How is it that we don’t at least find out what’s going on? This is a domestic violence case that has been blown out of proportion, but the media is having a field day because he has a foreign sounding name and fits the garbage narrative that we’re currently regurgitating. There’s that blurb at the end in which the prosecutor says ‘that the above charges are merely an accusation and that the defendant is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.’ Funny how you’re the only website that has copied that correctly, all the other ones have very conveniently left it out.
that’s why we go to the source if we can, other media outlets have to many agenda’s
