PUTRAJAYA, Jan 28 — The Court of Appeal today upheld the sentence of 10 years’ jail and seven strokes of the rotan imposed on a Royal Malaysian Air Force corporal for forcing his colleague to perform oral sex on him and outraging her modesty.
Justice Kamaludin, chairing the panel, said the jail sentence imposed on Mohd Juhazei by the High Court was reasonable as the court had already reduced the sentence from 15 years to 10 years.According to the charge sheet, Mohd Juhazei, 35, committed the offences on the 28-year-old woman at a car park in Setia Alam, Shah Alam, Selangor between 9.30pm and 10pm on October 3, 2017.
The High Court in 2020 dismissed Mohd Juhazei’s appeal against his conviction but allowed his appeal to reduce the jail sentence.
