Eduard Dimitriu was drinking with pals Marius Suciu and Paul Ionita at their flat in Torry on October 12 when he suddenly became irate. Having admitted assault and threatening and abusive behaviour, the 26-year-old was sentenced at Aberdeen Sheriff Court yesterday. Fiscal depute Lynzi Souter said: “A crude joke was made by one of the complainers and the accused didn’t seem to take kindly to it.”
