The Egyptian Public Prosecution Office in Damanhour is continuing its investigation into a complaint filed by the defense team of the Yasin family, alleging negligence and forgery against the school administrator and several teachers. This development comes after a final verdict was issued in the original criminal case related to Yasin. The complaint was filed under the Child Law No. 12 of 1996, specifically highlighting what the defense describes as "gross negligence and forgery."
According to Dr. Ayman Atia, the lawyer for Yasin's family, the defense team believes that certain individuals, including the school administrator and some staff members, had roles or responsibilities that necessitate investigation. The lawyer stated that the defense has submitted a complaint to the Attorney General against the school administrator and some teachers. The investigation aims to examine if there was any negligence or failure that contributed to the crime.
The lawyer mentioned that during previous investigations, the school administrator had provided statements that the defense claims included denying Yasin's presence or enrollment at the school. The defense argues that these statements need re-examination in light of the outcome of the original case. The current investigations are still in their initial stages, and the defense will present its documents and requests.
The defense team has also filed a lawsuit seeking 100 million Egyptian pounds in compensation, which is still pending before the court. The lawyer noted that the procedures for notifications have been completed, and the case is expected to be heard in one or two sessions before a verdict is issued. Meanwhile, Yasin is reported to be doing well but will likely remain affected by his ordeal for some time.
The lawyer emphasized that the defense continues to pursue legal actions, aiming to thoroughly investigate all aspects of the case and hold accountable those found responsible under the law. This includes exploring the possibility of additional suspects, although the current focus is on those named in the complaint.
The case has garnered significant attention due to its sensitive nature, involving a child and allegations of negligence and forgery within an educational institution. The Public Prosecution Office has the authority to summon the school administrator and teachers for questioning as part of the investigation.
As the investigation unfolds, the community remains vigilant, awaiting the outcome of the probe into the allegations against the school administrator and staff. The defense team's efforts to seek justice for Yasin and his family continue, with a focus on ensuring that all responsible parties are held accountable.
