Lorry driver gets 9 years, 5 strokes for raping teenage sister-in-law
The 16-year-old victim became pregnant and later gave birth to a child.
A 38-year-old lorry driver in Malaysia has been sentenced to nine years in prison and five strokes of the cane for raping his 16-year-old sister-in-law in July 2024. The father of nine pleaded guilty after the charge was read out by judge Emelia Kaswati Khalid. The victim, who had missed her period and experienced stomach pains, sought medical attention, where doctors confirmed she was two months pregnant.
Her mother took her to the hospital, and she subsequently reported the incident to the police. The victim gave birth to a boy last year. The court also ordered the accused to undergo counseling during his sentence and to be monitored by police for a year after his release.
