PITTSBURGH — Major new allegations and chilling video played in court today in a motions hearing for a restaurant owner accused of breaking into a woman's home and assaulting her.
Adnan Pehlivan was in court Thursday to ask the judge to allow him to travel to Australia to take his daughter to a concert.
The district attorney responded with a request for the judge to revoke his bail. The DA played surveillance video that allegedly shows Adnan Pehlivan stalking his victim on the South Side before allegedly breaking into her home and sexually assaulting her.
He has no criminal record, but prosecutors described Pehlivan as a predator.

The video shows Pehlivan driving past the victim and her two friends before pulling over and parking his car. Once he parked, the video shows Pehlivan continuing to follow them four times.
After playing the video, the DA also told the judge of a 2012 allegation where Pehlivan was caught with his pants down standing over a drunk, unconscious young woman in a South Side doorway.
The judge revoked Pehlivan’s bond and threw him in jail calling him a danger to the community and a flight risk.
