You can now listen to Antigua News articles!
YOU FIRST READ IT HERE
A young woman in her early twenties has filed a complaint with the local police station in Antigua and Barbuda after being subjected to a severe beating by the assistant pastor of an evangelical church here.
The assault was so brutal that it resulted in the woman being placed on a two-month medical leave. Her eye had to be stitched.
The name of the church involved has been kept confidential and specific details about the incident were intentionally omitted by our newsroom.
“I cried blood. Literally,” she tells Antigua.news.
The victim reported that she was repeatedly struck in the face following an altercation with the assistant pastor, who is known to have a history of violent behavior.
She expressed a hope that he would never be allowed to preach from the pulpit again.
The authorities are currently conducting an investigation into the matter.
The woman suffered visible bruises as a result of the assault, and she is seeking justice for the harm she endured.
These monsters hide in the congregation wicked ! Jail him
This is what defaces the name “religion”. When someone who stands up on the pulpit and not only once or twice, speak about violence but then you can hear them doing what they preach about!! And again maybe not only once or twice but it’s to an extent where the victim has no choice but speaking out!
These set of wicked people that stands behind the alter and preach a set of lies!!!! This is why people run away a from them instead of to them cause they preach one thing on a Sunday but they doing another thing when they get home or during the weak
An assistant pastor ,like really ,is it a political affair why the church and the assistant pastor can’t be identified? There are too much people above the law in this country,justice must be served I’m just fed up with this justice system in this country it’s so unfair help lord
Jail whom? That is the question. Allegedly caught with a gun ya face is plastered everywhere. Allegedly beats someone to near death but your identity is hidden. We are the problem with society.
Abuse to women get this pastor out of the church immediately
Oh yes he deserves to go to jail and be in jail so he can know how it feels like don’t hide in the church pleaseeeeeeeesay who if it was me I would
This is very sad. I am very disturbed by this. But the story is missing something. His name. We what to know this sucker name
Very wicked man hiding behind the church how can you do this to a woman ? Beat her to get stitches to her eyes ?
You mean to tell me this pastor beat the woman this bad ? A pastor? What got into him? He should not let the devil win
She is possessed so, he was trying to beat the demon out of her. We only got one side of the story…we have to hear the other 2 sides before we pass judgement
Regardless of what she did, there is no reason to beat this woman and to beat her this bad. You’re the one possessed because what the hell is so messed up in your life that made you want to justify this bullshit? Whoever woman hurt you, go to the Lord in prayer and don’t dare put your hand on her.
Sorry but you are no better than him. He is the demon and you the demon acolyte. Evil.
The devil is on the loose we can’t let him win? Did this pastor forget he is a child of god? Or he pretending to be godly? How can you be so wicked
You guys comments are sickening.
Did this pastor forget the Bible? He’s the reason why most people decide to not step foot in church he’s wearing a mask all along pretending to be serving the lord Smh
These acts need to be addressed asap and the name of the church needs to be exposed so the public can know who these fake Christians are because harming someone this way would never come from someone who takes God serious
The devil comes to kill, steal and destroy and Pastors as leaders are attacked. That’s why they need to be prayed up and fortified to fight back. Nobody knows what his background was before Christ cleaned him up, and we don’t know what prompted this vicious attack.
What we do know, is that a stint in jail is the solution here, because no one is above the law, and whilst he can repent of his actions, and God will forgive him if he is sincere,, he must face the consequences of the crime as his victim deserves justice.
I concurr with everything in this response. Well said.
They really need to expose these creatures in human form because what could possibly as a godly person have you to hurt somebody so bad that they needs 2 month sick leave
So many of them are behind the pulpit hiding their skeletons and they are quick to judge the ones that are more human than them but kamar has its way but you that assistant pastor you called yourself you are nothing but a woman abuser one I will never excuse for your actions to a weaker vessel than you,you are nothing but a coward and your skeleton will soon be out the closet ,you are a monster beyond disgrace
These are the same pastors who go to carnival and watch members of his congregation parade named in the streets. And return to church to preach without mentioning a word.
These kinds of people acts like they doesn’t have a mother, sister, aunt, gf/wife ect to do someone that kind of harm
They need to take this man off preaching because if u preach God then do harm u don’t deserve it💯
Some people love God but stay away from church because of men like these. If they are not having see with these women they are beating them. And you say there is no hell? There is actually.
Are these websites working with each other of they are taking from each other? Timestamp showed antigua.news had it first. Then newsroom picked it up. Then another and another. Welll it seems like it’s one pot and different spoons.
All I can say is jail this monster !!
I bet you every Sunday he in church preaching to people and he not taking anything he saying into consideration wicked man
No man can read no man heart or mind a lot of people use the church as cover up
What is this am reading really ? a pastor ? I more think this article should say an actor because it looks like is act he have been acting in church
Lololl
These church people d again smh no comments but he needs to be penalized
Wolves in sheep’s clothing. Many are called few are chosen. This one is a problem. And this pastor if he beat other women before how he still in church preaching?
The lord has given shepherds to take care of his sheep. Then when he returns he will find his sheep Meg and boney and cold and hungry. He is the good shepherd. These sucker’s in church are wicked and fattening themselves. One day. One day. One day
I love the way you people totally disregard the woman and beat on the pastor already destined for hell
Regardless of what she did, he had no right to put his hands on her. He beat that woman so bad that she cried blood and you’re trying to justify that?
Name and shame the perpetrator this way he,and others like him, will thibk twice before doing anything like this again. I hope the young lady gets all the help she needs,including counseling, to heal from this trauma.
I do not condone beating of no one be it male or female. However I think we need more information before we come to conclusions in any cases
This girl was having some relationship with the pastor? How she afraid to call his name? Let us know the church so we don’t go there. Antigua news we are loyal to you…tell us please who the pastor is and church. We need to know. Nowww
3 sides of a story, his ,her, and the truth , what really happened to lead up to this eating, something here, isn’t adding up , but ALMIGHTY GOD 😇✝️, Sees everything, and the TRUTH will out ,
Typo error,not eating ,BEATING
I am almost certain that after this he will bring a word and lay hands on people and annoint them with oil. Hypocrites
You seems be bias here.
He will preach and tell you avoid violence! You’ll get in a fight n beat someone like this and all he would say is “you should’ve walked away and turn to God” cause isn’t that what they all do?? Why couldn’t he have done the same?? Much less towards a woman?? Oh wow!
We keep focusing on the pastor who’s sins were sent way ahead of him to be judged. We need to pray for this girl who is emotionally and physically bruised
The standards in this world are all set different. If I was to thief or kill someone today my name and worst picture would be placed in the papers all across the socials! But the identity of a pastor can be hidden to protect him and his church. What about the young ladies protection?
Reading this article just makes me sick to the stomach smh
All the time a monster at church
I hope this man pay for his actions and the hurt he caused this woman
A pastor suppose to make the people of the lord feel safe now he have people running from the house of the lord
I love the way you people totally disregard the woman and beat on the pastor already destined for hell
THE BIBLE SAY CRY ALOUD AND SHOW THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL THEIR SIN … IF WE KEEP COVERING THE SIN HOW CAN WE EVER BE BETTER FOR THE KINGDOM….
“1 Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and shew my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins. 2 Yet they seek me daily, and delight to know my ways, as a nation that did righteousness, and forsook not the ordinance of their God: they ask of me the ordinances of justice; they take delight in approaching to God. 3 Wherefore have we fasted, say they, and thou seest not? wherefore have we afflicted our soul, and thou takest no knowledge? Behold, in the day of your fast ye find pleasure, and exact all your labours. 4 Behold, ye fast for strife and debate, and to smite with the fist of wickedness: ye shall not fast as ye do this day, to make your voice to be heard on high. 5 Is it such a fast that I have chosen? a day for a man to afflict his soul? is it to bow down his head as a bulrush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him? wilt thou call this a fast, and an acceptable day to the LORD? 6 Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke? 7 Is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? when thou seest the naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh? 8 Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the LORD shall be thy rereward. 9 Then shalt thou call, and the LORD shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am. If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity; 10 And if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in obscurity, and thy darkness be as the noonday: 11 And the LORD shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not. 12 And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places: thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called, The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in. 13 If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the sabbath a delight, the holy of the LORD, honourable; and shalt honour him, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words: 14 Then shalt thou delight thyself in the LORD; and I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it. ”

Anyone knows is this evil man has been arrested?
What got that pastor so mad to beat this girl like that? what could be the cause for so much rage
the pastor named need to be shared so people know to stay away from such monster …SHARE HIS NAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well whatever the name is. It’s the same shit different day. Pastors be devils. Devils be pastors
All I want to hear is when that mother….is charged and jailed.
Lady was this pastor your husband? Let us know. Were you having an affair? How the hell he did that to you?
Y’all don’t see that this is a attention grabbing scheme?
First of all, the young lady wrote this articule herself, she works for The Daily Observer and the owner of this newsroom WORKED for The Daily Observer.
This article is missing everything except the fact that she never thought her actions through.
Questions to this newsroom:
1: Why was she “assaulted?”
2. Have the police really been involved?
3. Have you as journalists, try to investigate yourself to see if there is any truth to this story?
To the follower aka “Social Media Law Enforcement Agent”:
1. What if you found out a different side to the story?
2. What if this was nothing near the truth?
It is sick how we out here passing judgement on matters that we don’t even know is true.
Waiting for Antigua News to publish the real story, if there is any.
The Bible says:
Proverbs 18: 17 – In a lawsuit, the first that speak, seem right, until someone comes forward and cross examines.
Huh? So the lady that was beaten is a journalist who wrote the story about herself. And antigua.news is owned by a former observer worker? Scratching my bald head…but isn’t this online newspaper owned by philanthropist and ambassador multi millionaire Dr Dario Item? So he sold it to a former worker of observer? Last time I checked the website is owned by him. Hey now this is juicy. Get your facts and tell us what you know. I was believing everything you said until you got it wrong with the ownership story. Anyway however the story go somebody was beaten. Eyes black. And pastor name calling.
But how you know the person when is bloody eye alone we can see? Aye Antigua is a sweet place for comedy.
Boy boy boy. Antigua news find the pastor and do a story. Antiguanewsroom stole the story too. One of you all better tell us the pastor side. We waiting.
@inquiring minds…. the same girl with the black eye like talk so let her tell the whole story. She likes to give out info so I don’t know why this story is so piece up.
@JahJah, Her full face has been circulating on whatsapp so everybody will soon have it.
Realize that the Daily Observer didn’t carry this story, she teamed up with her friend and I assumed this was her friends platforms since it said the story was delivered here FIRST, if this is not her friends platforms it’s the other one. So forgive me if I ever mislead anyone to believing so. Because she talk about her friend who operates another Newsroom.
She is misleading the whole digital world into believing she was assaulted for nothing.
Interview her properly and tell her to tell the whole story then, find the pastor cuz she knows who he is and interview the pastor and then, you make a proper story to give to the public.
Do it before Daily Observer does it the right way and get RIGHT story FIRST.
@realist well antigua.news will have to find the pastor and do the story. This would be the bombshell of the century. Antigua.news broke the Anthony Smith and nobody believed they were correct. So I assume their sources are credible. There is no smoke without a fire. When antigua.news tell you something there is a little truth to it. This is according to their history. So Indeed we waiting to find out. Antigua.news do you’re homework. Who is the liar? The beaten up red neck or the pastor?
