A 34-year-old man was sentenced for one year and ten months in prison for having sex with a minor with her consent, but the sentence has been suspended for three years, the Somogy County Prosecutor’s Office told Hungarian news agency MTI.

Apparently, the man was familiar with the 13-year-old girl’s family, and she had deeper feelings for her. During the summer she once visited him, they first talked, then had consensual sex.  

Early this fall the man participated at a family event at the victim’s family, then early in the morning, when all the family members were asleep, he went into the girl’s room and had consensual sex with her again. However, the victim’s mother interrupted them, and the defendant quickly got dressed and left the house. Next day the police arrested him. The defendant, who has no police record, admitted the deed.

The Nagyatád District Court has found the man guilty of continuous sexual abuse and sentenced him to three years and ten months in prison, suspended for three years. He has also been banned from any activities involving the education of under-18-year-olds.

The judgement is final.
