Investigative authorities continue examining the case of a young man accused of harassing a girl inside a public bus, as the defense witness arrived to give his testimony about the circumstances surrounding the widely shared incident.
Lawyer Khaled Rezq, representing the accused, stated that summoning the defense witness is part of completing the legal picture, with authorities aiming to hear all sides before making any decision.
He explained that the circulating video does not contain conclusive material proof of harassment, noting that the accusation currently relies mainly on unverified claims, while the fundamental legal principle presumes innocence until guilt is proven with certainty.
Rezq also pointed out that passengers who witnessed the situation did not remain passive, but instead defended the young man, raising questions about the logic of the accusation if the alleged act had truly occurred in front of everyone.
Investigations remain ongoing, with authorities reviewing testimonies and video evidence carefully to reach the full legal truth without rushing to judgment or being influenced by public pressure.
