Doctor jailed for raping exotic dancer after she refused him sex

Melbourne: A doctor in Adelaide, Australia, who became obsessed with an exotic dancer who refused him sex even after he wooed her with expensive gifts, has been jailed for raping her.

Minh Tuan Pham, 33, of Ferryden Park, became sexually obsessed with the 20-year-old woman who worked at an Adelaide nightspot, after lavishing her with gifts and even paying for her breast enlargement.

District Court Judge Mark Griffin said the woman refused to have sex with Pham even after he offered her as much as 20,000 dollars.

"It was deliberate, purposive and calculated. Violent crimes against women are particularly abhorrent to all right-thinking members of the community," News.com.au quoted the judge as saying.

Justice Griffin sentenced Pham to nine years in jail with a non-parole period of five years for raping his victim and causing aggravated harm.
