Both common assault convictions and the A$1,500 fine were quashed, with the judge highlighting the 'annoying and invasive' actions of the teenage girls who repeatedly knocked on his door as he tried to sleep ahead of the World Championship road race
, with the judge highlighting the"annoying and invasive" actions of the teenage girls who repeatedly knocked on the Dutch rider's door as he tried to sleep.
Mr Bowe admitted his client "fell into the trap" and suffered"exceptional embarrassment and humiliation" in the months since, also pointing out if the convictions were not to be overturned then he could have difficulties travelling internationally during the remainder of his career. According to court documents, the 27-year-old became"frustrated" when the girls repeatedly knocked on his door, room 930 of the Grand Parade Hotel, at 10.40pm, running back to their own room before he could answer.
One of the girls suffered a graze on her elbow as she was pushed against a wall while being shouted at by Van der Poel and the whole incident was captured in a somewhat incoherent mobile phone recording.
