Court reduces fine for father convicted of assaulting 10-year-old daughter with racquet
A Portuguese court has decided to reduce the financial penalty imposed on a father who was convicted of physically assaulting his 10-year-old daughter. The man broke a racquet on the child's back, and was subsequently tried and penalised for this act of domestic violence.
The judicial body decided to reduce the amount of the fine initially set against the defendant. The decision to mitigate the financial punishment was taken following the magistrates' evaluation of the specific case.
The incident involved a 10-year-old child, victim of assault by her own parent, who used a racquet as an instrument to inflict injuries on the minor.
