Rapist gets 5 years in prison

TANGERANG (JP): The Tangerang District Court sentenced on
Tuesday a driver to five years imprisonment for a rape he
committed last October.

The panel of judges stated in its verdict that the defendant,

offered the victim a ride in his car before the rape took place

from the Ciledug traditional market. The judges said the
defendant drove his car to the house, telling IR that he would
take his motorcycle.

The judges said the defendant then left IR and gave her Rp
1,000.
