Rapist cabby sentenced to 3 years’ jail

THE driver of an unlicensed taxi was sentenced to three years in prison for raping a drunken female passenger in May, the Jinshan District People’s Court said yesterday.

After picking up the woman and seeing she was drunk, the cabby drove her to a remote area and raped her on the backseat of his taxi, the court heard.

The victim said she was aware of being abused but was too drunk to defend herself.

The driver raped the woman twice then stayed with her in the cab until she awoke the next morning, prosecutors said.

Realizing she was still in a dangerous situation, the woman pretended nothing had happened, and instead asked the driver to take her home.

Once there, she reported the incident to police.
