The plaintiff filed a lawsuit against the defendant in which she requested the court to obligate the latter to pay her Dhs100,000 in compensation for the material and moral harms she had befallen plus the fees and expenses.
The plaintiff pleaded that the defendant had verbally abused her via WhatsApp and had already been convicted of this charge in a previous lawsuit, which was upheld by the Court of Appeal. As she had suffered several harms due to what the defendant did, the plaintiff was prompted to file this lawsuit with the aforementioned requests.
The court explained that the defendant's error was proven and resulted in psychological, moral and material harms to the plaintiff. As there was a causal relationship between the error and the harm, the defendant is legally obligated to compensate the plaintiff for those harms. The court thereby estimated the compensation due to the plaintiff at Dhs20,000.
