Earlier, investigators heard Saad Osama's testimony regarding the slapping incident involving Amr Diab at the party.
The young man claimed during the investigation that while taking a photo with Amr Diab, the artist slapped him across the face and scolded him in front of attendees.
In contrast, Amr Diab accused Saad Osama of provoking and harassing him during the event.
5 Million Pound Compensation
During his defense, Saad Osama's lawyer demanded 5 million pounds in civil compensation.
He argued that Amr Diab had slapped his client, hitting him in the most honorable part of the human body. Medical reports indicated that Saad Osama suffered from depression requiring treatment after the incident. The slap allegedly caused ongoing depression, leading the young man to take medication, isolate himself from society, and quit his job.
