The office of public prosecution accused a defendant of attempted to rape and beat a victim. The office also accused the defendant of indecent assault of the victim. The office requested the court to penalise the defendant according to the relevant laws.

The court acquitted the defendant of the crime of indecent assault.

The office and the defendant appealed the ruling before the court of appeal. The court dismissed the appeals and upheld the appealed ruling.

The defendant appealed the ruling before the court of cassation. He said in his grounds of appeal that the ruling had erred in the application of law. He said that the elements of the crime had not existed in his case.

The court said that this argument was invalid. The court said that the case documents revealed that the testimony of the victim and the report of the doctor proved that the defendant had committed the crime according to Article 191(1) of Kuwait Law No. 16/1960 .
