A local court in Essaouira issued a first-instance ruling in an unusual case involving harm to a donkey, ordering the defendant to pay compensation of 3000 dirhams to the animal’s owner along with court costs.
According to case details, the incident dates back to March when the animal was injured in a rural area, resulting in damages presented before the court.
During the proceedings, the defendant stated that the animal had entered a space considered private property, but the court found that the damage was established and warranted compensation.
The ruling upheld the main claim, set the compensation amount, and rejected other requests submitted in the case.
