Police in Giza, south of Cairo, received a notification from the Boulaq Ad Dakrour Hospital two days ago to inform them that a 5-year-old was transferred to hospital with bruises all over her body including on her head and chest.

After investigating the incident, it turned out that her’s father assaulted her using a plastic pipe because she failed to do her homework.
