Man gets 8 years in jail for sex with minor
An 18-year-old man from Funing county, Tianjin, has been sentenced to eight years in prison for having sex with a 13-year-old girl.
He was charged with rape as the country's existing law makes it clear that those having sex with girls under the age of 14 would receive heavier punishment even if she consented.
