A girl at the age of 5 weeks, who was injured by the skull, when a gang of criminals attacked her father last week, was discharged from the Sydney hospital the day before.
The case of Elizabeth Nunes shocked Australia and caused fierce discussions about the gangs operating in different cities of the country. People say that the number of cruel crimes is constantly growing, while the police claim that the number of cases of violence is falling.
According to official data from the Department of Statistics of Crimes, last year in Sydney, a city with a 4 millionth population, almost 35 thousand similar attacks were committed, Ananova.com reports.
It is assumed that those who attacked Elizabeth Nunes and her father criminals will appear before the trial on Tuesday. They are charged with beating. The police believe that, obviously, this crime was committed by mistake. Probably the attackers confused his father Elizabeth, Jeremy Nunes, with a criminal who stole a mobile phone from them.
Nunes carried a little daughter in a “kangaroo” backpack on his chest. At this time, he was attacked by three criminals who beat him, inflicting injuries and a girl.
Now criminals are facing a punishment from 7 to 10 years in prison, if the investigation proves their guilt in an attack that entails severe consequences.
