Appeals Court Approves 15-Year Term for Citizen in Store Owner's Death
The Court of Appeal upheld a verdict sentencing a citizen to 15 years in prison, with labor and immediate enforcement, after he was convicted of causing the death of a grocery seller in Al-Mutlaa. He was found guilty of assaulting the seller because he demanded payment for his groceries, then closed the car window on his hand, which led to him being dragged for 30 meters before falling and dying from his injuries. The court amended the charge from premeditated murder to assault leading to death and rejected the prosecution's request to escalate the sentence.
