Apartment guard jailed for Ramadan indecent act
The Court of Cassation in Al-Salt issued an appellate ruling convicting an Egyptian nationality condominium guard of the misdemeanor of inappropriate playful behavior (harassment). It sentenced him to one month in prison plus fees after overturning a previous acquittal due to the admission of evidence that was affected by an appeal. The case was initiated following a complaint from the father of a 9-year-old boy regarding sexual misconduct during Ramadan. Investigations confirmed that the defendant behaved in a manner constituting an assault on the child's modesty, including kissing and touching him at the defendant's residence. The court affirmed that the confirmed actions constituted the crime of inappropriate playful behavior (harassment) according to Article 305 of the Penal Code. The evidence was based on the testimony of the child and his father, with the appellant's claim of previous problems or malicious intent being rejected. The court also indicated that the proven actions do not fall under Article 306, and that the complaint was lawful. It acknowledged the waiver of the personal right and issued a ruling that the defendant committed the offense of inappropriate playful behavior and sentenced him to one month in prison.
