KUALA LUMPUR - An unemployed man pleaded not guilty in the Sessions Court here today to a charge of raping his former sister-in-law two years ago.

The 31-year-old man is charged with raping the 31-year-old woman at an apartment unit in Bandar Bukit Jalil in Cheras at 3.30 am on Jan 22, 2023.

The charge, under Section 376 of the Penal Code, provides a maximum prison sentence of 20 years and whipping if convicted.
