(File pic) KOTA BHARU : A teenager pleaded not guilty in the sessions court here today to a charge of raping a 15-year-old female student in the store room of a secondary school in Kuala Krai in April last year. The 18-year-old was charged under Section 376(1) of the Penal Code, but as the accused was a minor at the time of the alleged offence, sentencing provisions under Section 91 of the Child Act 2001 will apply. Deputy public prosecutor Ahmad Faiz Fitri Mohamad proposed bail at RM15,000, while defence counsel Wan Norfarhan Liyana Wan Baharunddin requested a lower amount, saying that the teen's parents worked as daily-wage labourers.
