(BBC) An imam who raped a schoolgirl in a mosque has been unconditionally discharged.
Khandaker Rahman, 67, from Cwmdu, Swansea, was found to have committed the crimes by a jury at Swansea Crown Court in June, after a trial of facts, as he was too ill to stand trial.
The absolute discharge sentence means Rahman committed the offence but will not face any punishment or order.
At Swansea Crown Court, judge Huw Rees said it was the only suitable option.
The judge stressed it was not because of the “seriousness” of the offences.
