CAIRO – 27 April 2021: Cairo Criminal Court ruled on Tuesday to sentence to 10 years in prison a molester who sexually abused a 7-year old girl in March.

 

The defendant, known in the media as “Maadi Child Molester,” was referred to the criminal court, after he was accused luring a girl selling tissues in the street in Maadi district, and made her follow him into a residential building, where he committed his crime.

 

Maadi child molester confessed during the investigations that he deliberately touched the 12-year-old girl's body improperly.

 

The Public Prosecution established the evidence on the accused based on the testimony of four witnesses, the child, in addition to the technical comparison between the image of the accused and the one attributed to him in the footage retrieved from a surveillance camera.

 

A lady who works at a laboratory in the same residential building saw the harasser on a CCTV while touching the girl’s body.

The lady said in the investigations that she opened the door abruptly, confronted the man, who fled the scene after he knew that his crime was recorded on the surveillance camera.

 

The lady then published the recorded video that shows the incident on Facebook; the video became viral and triggered angry posts calling for holding the harasser accountable for his crime. Social media users also hailed the brave lady for her rapid action to rescue the girl and help in arresting the harasser.
