crime of the offender, he is a prostitute in the sense of the victim and his conviction in
this case is execution by stoning as a marginal crime and not of conscience. This is due to
the discretion of the competent court, but the essence remains, which is:
The crime could be established under article (45) B of the child law for 2010 as a
reprehension crime through the evidence and the circumstances, as long as a
violation of the vagina or rectum has been established by these incriminating
evidence that are penalized in this case by article (45) paragraph (B). If the
incrimination fails to establish that the vagina or the rectum has been traumatized
with conclusive evidence, the crime shall be a reprehensive crime under
paragraph (G) of article (45) of the law.
After reading the jurisprudence of the Supreme Court on the above-mentioned points of
view, we could adopt second point of view because it fulfils the intentions of the law,
which is the protection of the child against crimes and whatever degree of harm or
damage caused on innocent children
Therefore, it is clear from the interpretation of the National Supreme Court jurisprudence
that:
1. The child act is a special law addressing offences and sanctions. It must be
established by all means of proof of the circumstances of the offense referred to in
Article 45 / B, where the vagina is found to have been traumatized by an act of the
offender, by mentioning it or by any other means.
2. The statements of the male or female child require that it be corroborated by evidence
or with related circumstantial evidence supporting the indicting report under “one of
the conditions under article (45) of the child law”.
3. The physical harm and damage to the vagina or the rectum which constitutes a
violation under paragraph (B) of article (45) is considered as damage and body
injuries that require punishment. If it results in a more serious harm/damage and
physical or psychological pain, the most severe punishment will be applicable,
according to the evidence presented in each case.
Returning to the case at hand, it is clear that:
a) The accused has sexually harassed the victim.
b) The medical report failed to conclusively establish that the accused violated the vagina or
that the removal of the vaginal hymen is a direct result of a recent violation, since the
report failed to mention the existence of redness of the vagina or any other visible cuts
and bruises to be taken as evidence of violation of the said body part, which constitutes a
presumption that the removal of the vagina hymen had happened before the incident.
c) The mere absence of the vagina hymen is considered an evidence to the removal of the
hymen and should be concluded that the acts and behaviour of the accused are
responsible for the removal of the hymen, in accordance with the indicting report under
article (45) of paragraph (B)
