By Sana Noor Haq, CNN
London (CNN) — A man has been found guilty of assaulting a woman, in a case that unexpectedly involved the US president’s son, Barron Trump, who told UK police he’d witnessed the attack during a video call last year.
Matvei Rumiantsev, a 22-year-old Russian citizen, was found guilty of assault occasioning actual bodily harm at Snaresbrook Crown Court, in east London, on Wednesday, the PA Media news agency reported.
Rumiantsev was found not guilty of one count of rape and intentional strangulation relating to the same date when Trump had called British police on January 18, 2025, shortly after witnessing the assault, the court heard.
He was also found not guilty of another count of rape and assault alleged to have occurred in November 2024, according to PA Media.
