“Visually impaired, 95% disabled”
The advice of the sixty-year-old explains that his client, “visually impaired and disabled at 95%, has been the victim of bank card theft five times. Nobody saw anything on the night of the incident. My client, who has not been talked about since 2003, does not dispute the injury. This is why we ask that the continued detention required by the prosecutor not be retained ”.
The court will not hear it that way. He handed down an eighteen-month prison sentence, including twelve months suspended probation for two years. The accused will also have to compensate the victim (the damage will be quantified during the dismissal on civil interests), and be bound by obligations of care, in particular to put an end to his alcoholism. Finally, he should no longer appear at Foyer Adoma and no longer hold a weapon.
