The Court of Appeal has reduced the total prison time for convicted child rapist, Murphy Noorhan, from 40 years to 20 years, ruling that his two 20-year sentences will run concurrently instead of consecutively.
Noorhan was convicted on two counts of sexually penetrating a 10-year-old girl between January 4 and 5, 2013. Justice Priya Sewnarine-Beharry had originally sentenced him on January 8, 2016, to serve two consecutive 20-year terms for each conviction, citing the severity of the offence and Noorhan’s breach of trust.
