A 56-year-old dad was imposed with a jail sentence of 428 years and 240 strokes of whipping for raping his two underage daughters – now aged 15 and 19 – as well as threatening to kill both girls and his wife.
The sentence was imposed by Ayer Keroh Session Court Judge, Nariman Badruddin after he maintained his guilty plea to all 28 charges that were imposed on him.
However, the jail sentence was to be served concurrently in stages, meaning that the accused will only serve 45 years jail sentence while the whipping was set to 24 counts, the maximum number of whipping that can be imposed on an offender.
The accused was charged with raping his now 19-year-old daughter 13 times between 24 September 2015 and 31 December 2018.
He was also charged with eight counts of raping his now 15-year-old daughter and five counts of charges for inserting objects into the victim’s private part.
The accused was also found guilty to one charge of committing an unnatural sex offence against the victim.
The charges against him were framed under Section 376(3), Section 377B of the Penal Code, Section 377CA of the Penal Code as well as Section 14(a) of the Sexual Offences Against Children Act 2017.
In a separate proceeding, the accused was charged with a two-year jail sentence for criminal intimidation against his wife and two daughters.
According to Awani, the accused, who has two wives, had begun to rape his daughters when they reached the age of 12.
His dark secret was only uncovered when one of his wives stumbled upon his heinous act with the now 15-year-old victim at their home last 5 September.
