Dr ACactivism claims he was beaten by Portuguese police after invading the stage at the ‘Eurovision Song Contest’ last Saturday (12.05.18).
Dr ACactivism interrupted UK act SuRie’s performance of ‘Storm’ in an incident that left the 24-year-old singer – who finished in 24th place on the show – with minor injuries after he rushed the stage and snatched her microphone from her hands.
Now, in a bizarre rant, he has claimed he was the victim of an assault by officers whilst he was held in custody in Lisbon.
Speaking to The SunOnline, he said: "I was beaten for ten minutes without any mercy at all"
He went on to say he was "pushed to death" and was denied the "right to participation in modern history".
He ended his statement by saying: "(I am) already dead. Murdered in the backstage."
SuRie suffered injuries to her shoulder and a "couple bruises" after being grabbed on stage, but insists she is alright after the incident.
Speaking on ‘This Morning’, she said: "There are a couple of bruises from where he grabbed the microphone but I am OK. And my shoulder where he came in."
However, she didn’t let the moment define her performance and instead used it to give a powerful performance and she praised the crowd for "cheering" her on and inspiring her to finish.
She continued: "He was suddenly there, security were on him as quick as he was on me.
"He got the mic, for a few seconds that was out of my hands but the song was still going, the backing vocalists were still singing, the crowd were still chanting.
"I just turned upstage for a moment but I was still clapping and actually cheering with the crowd. I turned back saw the mic on the floor and I thought, ‘Well that’s mine, I’ll finish the song.’ "
