Bedoun Tortured To Confess Drug Smuggling

The Criminal Court has set May 8 for hearing in a case involving a captain working at the Directorate General of Drugs Control who allegedly tortured a Bedoun while in custody.
The Public Prosecution accused the officer of beating the Bedoun, with assistance from other police officers, to force him to confess crimes he allegedly committed. The beating resulted in serious injuries to him, as mentioned in a medical report he submitted to the court.
Meanwhile, the Misdemeanor Court of Appeals upheld an earlier verdict by the Court of First Instance and acquitted a woman of beating a female manager at the workplace. The employee had allegedly pushed her manager as a result of conflicts between them. The defense lawyer argued the accusation was unfounded and contradicted report filed in the lawsuit.
