A mother and her teenage lover allegedly brutally assaulted her four children, leaving one baby crippled for life, a court heard.
The 29-year-old Bahraini woman appeared at the High Criminal Court yesterday where she denied assault and causing a permanent disability.
Her 18-year-old boyfriend, who the court heard provided free food to her children following their father’s death, is alleged to have tortured them too. He also denies the charges.
The defendants are accused of having regularly viciously beaten four children – two boys and two girls – whose ages range from 10 months to six years.
They are said to have nearly killed the 10-month-old boy on June 14 after the male defendant spun the child in the air hitting his head twice because the child would not stop crying.
