Court Acquitted A Youth Who Accused Of Attacking And Insulting A Kuwaiti

The Criminal Court acquitted a youth who was accused of attacking and insulting a Kuwaiti citizen in a public place for sexually harassing his sister. The Public Prosecution had charged the youth with assaulting a citizen, causing multiple injuries and humiliating him in public. The counsel to the citizen Lawyer Elaf Al-Saleh denied the charges, indicating that it does not make sense that her client initiated the fight considering the huge age gap and difference in body structure of her client and the plaintiff. She explained that her client was defending the honor and dignity of his sister as the plaintiff had been frequently harassing her to get her number and asking her to add him on SnapChat in order to see her personal videos and pictures. In fact, it was the plaintiff who insulted her client’s family when he was told to stop harassing the girl. Lawyer Al-Saleh stressed that the case lacks incriminating evidences against her client, and the investigations of the arresting officer were not conclusive to affirm her client attacked and insulted the plaintiff.
