Having effortlessly transitioned into acting, Fouzia's debut film swiftly captured global acclaim, earning accolades at the prestigious Cannes Film Festival
Dubai public prosecution records show that on August 23, 2018, the 29-year-old Emirati man became very aggressive with his wife, beat her up and left her with injuries which include difficulty in moving her right foot and a broken nose.
The Dubai Court of First Instance found him guilty of multiple charges, including assault, causing a permanent bodily harm and damage of private property.
The damage he caused to the hotel room where the assault took place was put at Dh10,890. The court ordered him to pay a Dh5,000 fine on that charge.
The incident was reported at Al Barsha police station.
"The incident happened on August 23, 2018, when I was with my husband and our two children at a hotel in Dubai. My husband suddenly became hysterical and suspicious of all what I do. He thought I was spying on him," the wife, a 23-year-old, said during the prosecution investigation.
She recounted to the investigator how her husband punched her in the head, and strangled her with both his hands. "As I tried to run out of the room, he followed me and slammed the door on my right foot repeatedly. I was down on the floor when he punched me on my nose."
Some guests and security guards came to the noise. The police then arrived and she was taken to hospital.
The defendant admitted to assaulting his wife during the police interrogation and prosecution investigation.
The wife had to be examined three times by the medical examiner before a final forensic report could be done.
She was left with a difficulty in moving her right foot and a nose injury. Both injuries are estimated to be permanent.
The defendant can appeal the ruling within 15 days.
