The Gulf Court of Appeals in Fujairah considered a Gulf case accused of assaulting his wife and son for beating her son out of school for a week on a continuous basis.
Details of the case came back when the victim and her 15-year-old son, a high school student, submitted medical reports proving that they had been beaten, causing moderate injuries throughout their bodies.
During the course of the course, the defendant told the judiciary that "while I was in my job and received a call from my son's school they told me that he had been absent for a full week without giving any medical excuse or communicating with the school to explain the reasons for the repeated absences, which angered me and made me lose control of my nerves because I thought That my son throughout the last period regular in his studies, especially in the secondary stage that requires a presence daily ».
He admitted to beating them with the intention of discipline rather than violence, after he was embarrassed by the school administration, which surprised him with the news of his son's absence.
