Court of Appeal judgement. In this case, our forensic psychiatrist Dr John Bosco Lee was the expert witness for the Defence at the High Court trial. This was a Criminal Legal Aid Scheme.
On March 12, 2018, an 18 year old teenager with an intellectual disability was sentenced to reformative training for aggravated rape and two charges of sexual assault committed in 2014.
The prosecution then appealed against the decision, saying he should be jailed and caned instead.
The court upholds the decision for reformative training.
