    Court
    Sessions Court
    Case number
    AG-62JS-1-10/2024 (Mahkamah Sesyen)

    The court found the prosecution proved beyond a prima facie and ultimately beyond reasonable doubt the elements of s.376(2): the victim's credible and consistent testimony, corroborating witness accounts, and forensic DNA linking the accused to semen on the rear seat established penetration without consent and immediate prior threats; the accused's sworn denial and explanations were uncorroborated and amounted to a bare denial, failing to raise reasonable doubt; accordingly the accused was convicted and sentenced.
