Qisas Judgment in an Intentional Homicide Case After Criminal Responsibility Was Established
A criminal litigation matter in which Atyar Advocates & Legal Consultants represented the holders of the private right and pursued a Qisas claim, resulting in a judicial judgment ordering Qisas and its subsequent affirmation through the relevant stages of judicial review.
A Criminal Assault Resulting in the Victim's Death
The matter arose from a violent incident in Riyadh that resulted in the death of the victim following an assault with a bladed weapon.
Following the incident, the competent authorities commenced the investigation and evidence-gathering process, while Atyar Advocates & Legal Consultants represented the holders of the private right and pursued their claim for Qisas based on the intentional killing.
The matter required detailed assessment of the factual circumstances, criminal and medical evidence, witness testimony and statements made by the offender, together with continuous management of proceedings before the competent authorities and courts.
Establishing the Offender's Criminal Capacity and Responsibility
The case was not limited to proving the assault and resulting death. During the judicial review stage, a significant issue arose regarding the offender's criminal capacity and legal responsibility for the offence.
Criminal Responsibility
Consideration of the case was delayed at one stage pending verification of the offender's capacity, awareness and responsibility for his actions. This required a specialised assessment before the court could continue its consideration of the matter.
Completing the Required Procedures
Atyar followed the procedures associated with the required assessment until it was completed. The specialised evaluation concluded that the offender could be held criminally responsible for the offence, allowing the court to continue the proceedings.
