A few days ago, the Hantai District Procuratorate of Hanzhong City released an indictment in which a man forcibly had sex with a 71-year-old deaf-mute woman, and was prosecuted by the prosecution.
According to the indictment, the man's surname is Liu, 59 years old, and his family lives in Yang County, Hanzhong City, Shaanxi Province.
At about 19:00 on May 17, 2021, the man found an old man waiting alone at the bus stop in the central square of Hantai District, so he went forward to talk, and after finding that the old man was deaf and mute, he took him north along the road on the pretext of buying food for him.
"During this period, the man had evil intentions and prepared to take him to a remote and uninhabited place to rape him."
When the man rested on the side of the road, he first put his hand into the old man's clothes, molested him, and then forcibly had sex with the old man behind the sidewalk baffle.
The next day, the man was criminally detained by the police on suspicion of rape and was arrested shortly thereafter.
The Prosecution considers that the man who forcibly had sexual relations with the victim against the woman's will should be held criminally responsible for rape, because he confessed his guilt and accepted punishment voluntarily, and leniency was applicable.
The targets of their crimes are the elderly and the disabled, and they shall be given heavier punishments. Ultimately, prosecutors recommended sentencing the man to three years and three months in prison.
