In this unusual case, a man of cloth was arraigned on nine counts of contravening section 65 of the Criminal Law (Codification and Reform) Act [Chapter 9:23] and one count of contravening section 29(1)(B) of the Censorship and Entertainments Control Act [Chapter 10:04].
In respect of the latter charge, I am not sure how the prosecutor missed it, as the correct citation is section 26(1)(b) of the Censorship and Entertainments Control Act [Chapter 10:04].
The applicant was convicted on five of the counts of rape as well as the count under the Censorship and Entertainment Control Act.
In respect of the rape charges, the applicant was sentenced to 15 years imprisonment, counts 3 and 7 and ten years each in counts 8 and 9. Of the total of 50 years imprisonment 10 years were suspended for five years on condition of future good behaviour.
In respect of the charge under the Censorship and Entertainments Control Act, he was sentenced to 4 months imprisonment which was ordered to run concurrently with the sentence in Count 3.
