For raping a woman who rented his house, a repeat offender received 5 years in prison

A South Korean court has sentenced a man to five years in prison for raping a woman to whom he rented a room in his home. The convict mixed sleeping pills into an alcoholic drink, after which he sexually assaulted the victim. He has been jailed twice for similar crimes. This was reported by News1.

The verdict was handed down by the Pyeongtaek City Court. According to the materials of the criminal case, the crime occurred on the evening of March 13 in the man’s house, where the victim rented a room.

The convict offered the woman a traditional Korean alcoholic drink, McColi, previously adding a sleeping pill to it. He then raped the victim.

According to the court, the man and woman met about three months before the incident through the Internet community. In February, she moved into his house, arranged to rent a room for a small fee and no bail.

The investigation found that the sleeping pills used in the attack, the man received legally. The drug was prescribed to him by a doctor to treat insomnia. However, the drug was later used to commit a sexual offence.

In addition to rape, the court found the man guilty of violating legislation governing the handling of psychotropic substances. When imposing punishment, the judges took into account the criminal past of the defendant. It turned out that he had been repeatedly prosecuted for sexual violence.

In 2005, the man was sentenced to three years in prison. The following year, he received another year and a half in prison for rape related to illegal entry into the home.

The court noted that previous convictions had not deterred the man from a new offence. At the same time, the victim experienced significant psychological suffering as a result of the violence experienced.

During the same period, information about him will be subject to disclosure in accordance with the procedure established by law. In addition, the man for ten years banned to work in institutions and organizations whose activities are associated with children, adolescents and people with disabilities.
