Two men jailed for 10 years for attempted murder

The Court of Appeal has sentenced two men to 10 years in jail for attempted murder and attacking other persons in their own house, reported Gulf Times.

Local Arabic daily Arrayah first reported that the duo was convicted of premeditated physical attack against others using unlicensed sharp weapons and sticks, in addition to breaking into the private house of the victim.

On the day of the incident, one of the defendants headed to the house of the victim to settle a previous dispute with him. He was accompanied by the other defendant who claimed he was going with the first one to help in diffusing the situation.

However, when they reached the house of the victim, they broke into the house and a heated argument erupted leading to further physical attack on the victim.

In the middle of the fight, the father of the victim tried to defend his son but due to his weak health he fainted and fell on the floor. He died at the hospital. The court established the guilt of the defendants based on the investigations and the medical reports.
