THIS is the shocking moment a Brit mum was punched in the face by a security guard during a heated argument.

The mum-of-one, from Eastbourne, had an altercation with Mohammad Ayan, 27, after she caught him napping at his desk.
Ms Cox was furious with the guard who was supposed to patrol the Modern Home Tower apartment block where she lived.
She began filming him at his desk before the argument exploded and the pair went outside.
She can then be seen pushing Mr Ayan on the shoulder in what she claimed a “self-defence” as she alleged he followed her.
The horrific footage shows the moment the guard sucker punched Ms Cox, knocking her down to the ground, and walked away from the scene.
She is seen slumped on the floor and seemingly screaming in agony as she covered her face with her hands.
After the attack, she suffered a black eye, bruised jaw, and a fractured and swollen cheekbone.
The incident took place in 2021 but the arrest warrant for Mr Ayan was issued only in September last year.
The case gained attention again this week as the family searched for the suspect.
Ms Cox said: “My life will never be the same again. My face has been permanently damaged.
“I don’t know why he attacked me but my only guess can be that I woke him up while he was sleeping.
“In the video clip, the only thing that I am telling him is to leave me alone and go back to work but he kept following me.
“It’s not good for a man to follow a woman, I felt scared. He didn’t stop. He kept following me and I felt intimidated because I was on my own.
“He should not have hit a woman. I want the security guard to be arrested and brought to justice.”
The teacher’s husband, Boonake Wongsuriyawattana, 46, has once again called on the attacker to be caught.
He sought help from lawyers at the charity Campaign to Reclaim Social Justice (CRSJ Foundation) in Nonthaburi province.
Boonake said: “My wife was searching for me after I looked for something in my car for a while before she saw the sleeping security guard and woke him up, recording the video to report to his supervisor.
“They started arguing before the security guard told her to walk to the right side of the building.
“She did not see him, so she walked back to the left side and saw the security guard following her. My wife was scared and told him to get away from her.
“The security guard took the opportunity when she was unaware to punch her and knock her down.”
According to Boonake, the alleged assailant had not been fired from his job and the security company moved away for safety reasons.
It was later discovered that Mr Ayan quit his job following the incident.
Boonake also blamed the company for refusing liability and failing to check on Ms Cox.
The security firm reportedly sent a fruit basket as an apology to the victim only after Boonake had raised the issue.
But they refused to intervene otherwise, calling it a conflict between the two individuals.
Boonake has also verified the document from the company with the Metropolitan Police Bureau which claims that the security guard didn’t have the required permits to work.
Raphatsit Phattarasirichaisin, vice-president of the CRSJ Foundation, said the charity would seek litigation against the employer and Mr Ayan.
