The Pakistani boy, Azan Majid, was raped and strangled by his uncle in May 2017, on the rooftop of the very apartment building in Abu Dhabi where he lived with his father. The convict was not present in the court at the time of the verdict.
During the Cassation Court trial, the accused, Mohsen Bilal, denied the charges of rape and murder.
