An Iraqi asylum seeker, Bawan Harwe, 28, is jailed for 29 years after being convicted of sexually abusing girls aged between 12 and 16. According to reporting, Harwe contacts the girls using a false name and messages them in a way that earns their trust. Prosecutors say he then lures them to a mini-mart setting, where he drugs and drinks with them before the assaults. The reports describe multiple offences involving rape and sexual abuse of minors. The sentencing reflects the court’s view of the seriousness of the crimes, including the victims’ ages and the methods used to facilitate the attacks, such as deception and the alleged use of alcohol and drugs. The coverage focuses on the conviction and the length of the custodial sentence, with details of how Harwe allegedly arranged contact with the victims and carried out the assaults.
