Haziq Aiman Azhar, 25, pleaded not guilty to all the charges read before judge Zulkifli Abllah.

Haziq was accused of raping the teenager at a house in Bachok, near here, in January and 4am on April 9. He is also accused of committing physical sexual assault against her at the same house at 5.45am on June 3.

The charges were framed under Section 376 (1) of the Penal Code and Section 14 (d) of the Sexual Offences Against Children Act 2017, punishable under Section 14 of the same Act, each providing a prison sentence of up to 20 years and whipping if convicted.

Haziq was also charged with breaking into the teenager’s house to sexually assault her at 5.45pm on June 3 under Section 455 of the Penal Code, which carries a prison sentence of up to 14 years and a fine or whipping.

Deputy public prosecutor Ahmad Faiz Fitri Mohamad did not offer bail to Haziq, who was unrepresented, citing the severity of the offence as it involved a minor.

The court has set July 24 for case mention and for the accused to appoint a lawyer.
