K'tan cops want girls in 'consensual' statutory rape cases charged tooHassan: Statutory rape means the girl is underage, that is, under the age of consent. Furthermore, most of these statutory rape cases are reported by the girl or her parents. Or is this an attempt to reduce the high number of rape cases in Kelantan by discouraging reporting? LimPanther5220: Kelantan police chief Yusoff Mamat said that if the law allows action to be taken against both parties, statutory rape cases like this can be curbed. If men involved in statutory rape cases have been charged and this does not prevent such cases from continuing, how is action taken against both parties going to curb such cases?
