Offences Against Women and Children
Someone previously convicted under Sections 64, 65, 66, or 70 who is subsequently convicted again under any of these sections faces life imprisonment (remainder of natural life) or death.
This creates a severe repeat-offender enhancement specifically for rape-related convictions - a second conviction for any of these serious sexual offences can result in death or genuine whole-life imprisonment, reflecting zero tolerance for repeat sexual violence.
This is why someone with a prior rape conviction who is later convicted of rape again faces the harshest possible sentencing tier - potentially the death penalty - specifically because of their repeat offending.
