Home and Away spoilers follow for UK and Australian viewers.

Home and Away's Justin Morgan will become the latest victim of Dimitri Poulos' (Salvatore Coco) violent temper, as he's attacked and left in a critical condition by Dimitri.

It was recently revealed that the main reason Dimitri's son Theo Poulos (Matt Evans) showed up unexpectedly in Summer Bay last year was because Dimitri had been physically abusive toward Theo – a fact which Theo has been trying to keep secret from everyone around him.

However, the truth recently came to light as Dimitri's sister Leah Patterson-Baker (Ada Nicodemou) learned of Dimitri's history of abuse toward his son.

In scenes airing this week in Australia, and in just over a month's time in the UK, TV Week reports that Dimitri turns on Leah and accuses her of brainwashing his son and turning him against him while Theo has been living in the Bay.

Leah is stunned by her brother's clear aggression and she orders him out of town and away from Theo.

"When Leah realises what Dimitri has been doing, it changes her opinion of her brother," Theo star Matt said. "She no longer wants anything to do with him until he sorts out his temper."

Unfortunately, Dimitri isn't willing to do as he's asked and so he doesn't leave Summer Bay at Leah's request. Instead, he turns up at the garage, with his temper still fired up.

When Dimitri arrives, Leah's partner Justin (James Stewart) tells Dimitri that he needs to take responsibility for his actions. But Dimitri doesn't take this well, and he turns violent again, knocking Justin out cold before leaving.

When Justin doesn't come home after work, a worried Leah heads to the garage to find him and is horrified to discover her partner lying on the ground, barely conscious.

She quickly calls an ambulance for him, but will Justin be okay? And what will happen to Dimitri after this latest outburst?
