An ex-member of the popular R&B/Hip Hop outfit Ruffedge is charged for raping his 14 year-old stepdaughter. He was sentenced to 20 years imprisonment and 10 strokes of caning by the Sessions Court.
The man was charged last February for raping his stepdaughter who was 14 at the time of the offence at their home in Gombak. The judge had ordered the accused, 38, to start the sentence today. However, the judge allowed the sentence to be defered until after an appeal is done in the High Court.
The accused was charged under Seksyen 376 (2) (d) which carries a maximum of 30 years imprisonment and caning if found guilty of charges.
