Sydney restaurant owner jailed for raping customer

Rattanan Premprasert was jailed for a maximum of six-and-a-half years with a non-parole period of four years for raping a woman in his Thai restaurant in the inner city suburb of Ultimo in 2012.

New South Wales District Court Judge Peter Whitford said the 50-year-old watched the woman get drunk then told her friends he would look after her.

The judge said when the woman woke up the restaurant owner was on top of her so she tried to push him away and called out for help.

The restaurant owner was found guilty of charges that include aggravated sexual intercourse without consent.
