Legal Question in Criminal Law in Saudi Arabia

I am not injured but emotionally wreck. A colleague hit me several times. No provocation. There was history because I refuse to lend him some money.

Fortunately I able a self-defense and manage to ward his strike until someone forcefully stop him. I did not retaliate at all.

This is a workplace violence (any incident, in which an employee is abused, threatened or assaulted by fellow employees or by a member of the public in circumstances arising out of the course of his or her employment).

These actions were capable of constituting serious misconduct justifying summary dismissal.

I wish the assaulter to have a summary dismissal. How and what action I can do.?

report the matter to your employer. You can also report to the police. In both cases you must be able to prove you case by all means such as witnesses.
