The High Criminal Court in Bahrain has adjourned the hearing of a case involving a Bahraini man accused of assaulting an Arab man until June 2. The defendant claims he acted in self-defense after the victim initiated the attack, while the Public Prosecution alleges that he caused a 2% permanent disability to the victim. The victim recounts being assaulted with a glass cup and punched multiple times, resulting in a deep laceration on his neck and a 2% permanent disability. A hotel security guard corroborates the victim’s account, and the forensic report confirms the extent of the injuries. The defendant’s criminal record also shows previous convictions for similar offenses.

During the court hearing, the defendant maintained his innocence and claimed that he acted in self-defense when the victim initiated the attack. The Public Prosecution, however, alleges that the defendant assaulted the victim, causing a 2% permanent disability, even though he did not intend such severe injury. The victim’s testimony details the events leading up to the assault, where he was dropping off his girlfriend at a hotel and was allegedly attacked by the defendant with a glass cup and punches to his face and neck.

The victim’s account of the events is supported by a hotel security guard who witnessed the altercation. The security guard stated that he saw the victim grabbing the defendant’s shirt and punching him, which led to the defendant retaliating with the glass cup. The forensic report confirms the extent of the victim’s injuries, including a deep laceration on his neck and damage to a nerve resulting in a 2% permanent disability. The defendant’s criminal record also plays a significant role in the case, as it shows previous convictions for similar offenses.

The Public Prosecution emphasizes the defendant’s confession during the investigation, adding weight to the case against him. The forensic report further supports the victim’s account of the assault, with the nerve conduction examination confirming the extent of the permanent disability caused by the incident. The victim’s testimony, along with the evidence presented in court, paints a clear picture of the events that unfolded during the altercation between the defendant and the victim at the hotel.

The complexity of the case lies in the conflicting accounts of the incident presented by the defendant and the victim. The defendant claims self-defense, while the victim maintains that he was the one assaulted by the defendant. The forensic evidence, including the deep laceration on the victim’s neck and the nerve damage resulting in a permanent disability, further complicates the case. With the defendant’s criminal record showing previous convictions for similar offenses, the court will have to carefully weigh the evidence presented and come to a fair judgment in the case when it reconvenes on June 2.

In conclusion, the case involving a Bahraini man accused of assaulting an Arab man and causing a permanent neck injury has been adjourned until June 2. The defendant claims self-defense, while the victim recounts being assaulted with a glass cup and punched multiple times, resulting in a 2% permanent disability. The evidence presented in court, including the victim’s testimony and forensic report, along with the defendant’s criminal record, will be crucial in determining the outcome of the case. The conflicting accounts and complex nature of the case will require careful consideration by the court to ensure a fair judgment is reached.
