In all my time of blogging about WTFness, I have never come across such audacity:
A Malaysian of Indian origin, who was sentenced to 36 years in jail four years ago for repeatedly raping his minor daughter, wants his jail term reduced because he used a condom while committing the crime.
[...]
[The rapist’s lawyer SI] Rajah told the court the sentence should be reduced since “the accused used a condom every time he committed the offence”, the New Straits Times reported Saturday.
I think the man should be forced to wear a condom for the rest of his stay in prison. At all times. The same one.
I could add to that, but never mind.
