Tulisa blow 'caused minor bruising and swelling'

A judge who found N-Dubz star Tulisa Contostavlos guilty of assaulting a celebrity blogger at a music festival said she had acted in a "confrontational" manner when she turned towards her victim.

I am quite sure to the requisite standard of proof, based on my analysis of the evidence that I have heard, that Ms Contostavlos did strike [Savvas] Morgan in the face during an argument and that that blow caused minor bruising and swelling.

Her decision to seek to deal with Mr Morgan herself strikes me as aggressive and confrontational.

– District Judge Angus Hamilton
