KOTA BHARU: The number of rape and incest cases in Kelantan has increased but investigations showed that many were consensual sex, says Kelantan police chief Datuk Mohd Yusoff Mamat.

He said 252 cases were reported in 2024 compared to 206 cases in 2023, an increase of 22.3%. What was more worrying was that some of those involved were as young as 10 years old.
