The Public Prosecution filed lawsuit against a defendant on charges of coming to a claimant’s house, threatening him, and sending threatening, insulting and cursing messages to his mobile phone. The prosecution requested charging him with these offences and sentencing him to a discretionary punishment (noting that the private right still existed).

The defendant admitted the validity of the lawsuit and argued that he was not present at the plaintiff's house with bad intent but rather it was to reach an understanding about words he had said about him and a message he had unintentionally sent in response to a poem sent to him.
