Citizen Fined 2,000 Dinars For Assaulting A Doctor

The Misdemeanor Court has imposed a fine of 2,000 dinars on a Kuwaiti citizen for insulting a doctor at Mubarak Al-Kabeer Hospital by grabbing her by the stethoscope she was wearing around her neck, reports Al-Anba daily. The ruling came in response to a complaint filed by lawyer Elaf Al-Saleh.

The Public Prosecution had charged the accused, also a Kuwaiti citizen, with insulting the victim, a doctor in the emergency room of the hospital, by grabbing the stethoscope she was wearing. The incident occurred when the accused was being examined, and he requested to speak to the victim alone. He then informed her that he had taken a dose of Shabu and assured her that his condition was stable.

However, he suddenly stood up angrily, shouted at her to be quiet, assaulted her, and grabbed her stethoscope. Lawyer Elaf Al-Saleh provided video evidence of the incident to the hospital, along with witness testimonies. The court reviewed the evidence and subsequently imposed a fine of 2,000 dinars on the accused.
