A man in Ras Al Khaimah has been found not guilty of charges related to physically assaulting his wife and filming her without her consent. The Ras Al Khaimah Criminal Court reached its decision after the defense presented compelling evidence, including medical reports, and argued that the wife had a pattern of making false accusations.
The wife claimed that her husband had physically attacked her and recorded her without her approval. However, the defense attorney challenged these allegations by providing a medical report that indicated no evidence of physical harm that would support the claims. Furthermore, the defense pointed out that the wife had previously lodged similar complaints that were later dismissed by the court.
The court ultimately sided with the husband, stating that there was not enough evidence to back up the wife’s allegations.
