Ex-security officer to be sentenced tomorrow for rape

Listen to this article:

A FORMER security officer is set to be sentenced tomorrow by Justice Thushara Rajasinghe after being convicted of two counts of rape.

Lepani Likunitoga was convicted of raping a girl at the Suva Flea Market on December 26, 2012.

The Suva Court of Appeal had ordered a re-trial in the matter after Likunitoga was acquitted of the charges in 2014 by the High Court in Suva.

After a re-trial before Justice Rajasinghe the assessors had found Likunitoga guilty for the first count of rape and not guilty for the second count of rape.
