The Court of Appeal revised the sentence of a sex offender after it had found it “excessive”.
Khairul Bashar, who was sentenced to a six-year-and-six-month jail time with three strokes of the cane for outraging the modesty of a 12-year-old girl and taking obscene photos of her inside a public toilet, had his sentence reduced to four years of jail and two strokes of the cane.
