 An official source in the Public Prosecution in Saudi Arabia stated that the Public Prosecutor, Sheikh Saud bin Abdullah Al-Mujeb, directed the arrest of a person who assaulted a health practice while she was performing her work in a hospital in Al-Majardah Governorate, and that the investigation procedures against him should be completed in preparation for referring him to the competent court in detention.

The source stressed that these acts are among the major crimes that require arrest.

He stressed that the Public Prosecution provides criminal protection for the public servant during the exercise of his duties in accordance with its competence and the relevant regulations, and that it will not hesitate to demand aggravating and severe penalties for anyone who assaults them.

The Asir region police had arrested a citizen who appeared in a video clip beating the nurse and dragging her on the ground. He was arrested, and legal measures were taken against him, and referred him to the Public Prosecution.

The social networking site "Twitter" has been buzzing during the past hours after a video clip was circulated showing the Saudi assault on the nurse inside the hospital and dragging her to the ground after she fell, amid her screams and begging to stop the attack, and a number of witnesses of the incident tried to stop him and distance him from her, causing chaos and panic among the corridors of one departments in the hospital.

The pioneers of social networking sites circulated an infographic by the Ministry of Health explaining the expected punishment for the citizen who appeared in a video clip of beating a nurse in a hospital in Al-Majardah Governorate.

The infographic indicated that the penalty for assaulting a health practitioner verbally or physically is a crime punishable by law with imprisonment of up to 10 years and a fine of one million riyals.
