An officer from MoI has been sentenced to 7 years in jail by the Court of Cassation for assaulting a Bangladeshi man, causing him to be paralyzed. This decision was made after the victim failed to wash the officer's car. The Public Prosecution charged the officer with assault, which led to the victim sustaining injuries resulting in a permanent disability of at least 50% of the body’s total capacity. The Court of Appeal deemed the evidence against the accused to be credible. Consequently, the Court of Appeal upheld the sentence of 7 years of imprisonment with hard labor.
