Shocking Video of Violent Assault Circulates on Social Media
Activists on social media shared a disturbing video yesterday documenting the violent assault of a person by a man, while an elderly woman attempted to intervene to protect the victim.
The investigation into the matter revealed that the incident occurred in the Ouled Amer region, under the delegation of Kandar, in the governorate of Sousse. An individual violently assaulted his own brother, who suffers from a mental disability, using a stick and pouring water on him while he was lying on the ground.
Preliminary investigations showed that the conflict between the two brothers stemmed from the fact that the victim had set fire to furniture belonging to his brother.
The Public Prosecutor's Office near the Court of First Instance of Sousse 2 ordered the detention of the assailant for "offense against good morals" and "violent assault on a person in a state of manifest vulnerability". The victim, on the other hand, was hospitalized at Razi Hospital.
