After raping a 13-year-old, Sean Hogg was given 270 hours of unpaid work rather than a custodial sentence.
Kenny Donnelly, deputy Crown agent at the Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service, said: "Sentence is quite rightly the domain of the independent judiciary.
He added: "The question of Crown appeal against sentence in this case has been carefully considered and the decision to place this matter before the appeal court has been communicated to the complainer through her representative." "My client still does not understand why Hogg was allowed to get on with his life when he had ruined her, she wonders how many girls will think there is no point in reporting rape after seeing a rapist walk free.
She was diagnosed with PTSD, suffered from panic attacks and self-harmed on a daily basis following the attacks. She also said she had undergone three years of counselling. "I did not get justice, the system failed me, the judge failed me, he didn't protect me. I had done nothing wrong and yet he is a free man. You let him go, but gave me, the victim, a life sentence."The sentencing drew criticism from rape victims and the Rape Crisis charity, while the case was discussed across the world.
