PUTRAJAYA: A former crane operator has been sentenced to 36 years' jail and 20 strokes of the cane by the Court of Appeal for raping two of his young daughters.
This followed the decision of the three-member panel comprising Justices Datuk Seri Kamaludin Md Said, Datuk Azman Abdullah and Datuk Lim Chong Fong in allowing the man's appeal to reduce his jail sentence and whipping to 18 years and 10 strokes of the cane for each charge.
