Four members of a family were today sentenced to a total of 280 years' jail, each for between 25 and 150 years, by the Sessions Court here for the rape of a 19-year-old girl in Kampung Daha Seroban, Serian.
Judge Marutin Pagan handed down the jail sentences on the four accused - comprising the victim's grandfather, father and two uncles, aged 26 and 28 - after they pleaded guilty to the charges.

One of the uncles was sentenced to 25 years' jail and 24 strokes of the cane on one count of raping the girl, while the other uncle was sentenced to a total of 55 years' jail and 24 strokes of the cane for raping the girl and also her younger sister. He was sentenced to 19 years' jail for raping the girl, and 30 years' jail for raping the victim's younger sister.
They were all ordered to to serve the jail sentences concurrently from the date of their arrest.
