Burger seller claims trial to raping 12-year-old
According to the facts of the case, Akhil Yusuf met the victim in Tangkak, Johor, only the day before the alleged offence.
A 24-year-old burger seller, Akhil Yusuf, appeared in the Muar sessions court on May 29, 2023, to face charges of raping a 12-year-old girl. Akhil pleaded not guilty to the allegations before Judge Emelia Kaswati Khalid. The offense occurred in a parked car on the roadside in Tangkak, Johor, around 3 am. According to the case, Akhil had only met the victim the day prior and picked her up in his vehicle.
He subsequently stopped the car and committed the act. The victim's mother discovered incriminating messages on her daughter's phone, leading to the charges. The court granted Akhil bail at RM8,000, mandating him to report to the nearest police station monthly and refrain from contacting the victim or her family via social media. Akhil, who lacked legal representation, is set to return to court on September 17, 2023.
