Man jailed for Bible boy rape

Raping a young boy who disclosed the abuse while reading the Biblical tale of Sodom and Gomorra with his father has landed a Calgary man a seven-year prison sentence.

Provincial court Judge Sandy Hamilton yesterday said the repeat assaults inflicted on the boy by Khatab Ismail has left the victim permanently psychologically scarred.

"The victim presented as a very troubled young boy," Hamilton said, noting he now lives in a group home and has twice attempted suicide.

"He presented as being sexualized well beyond his years and gave a recitation of the events surrounding his (abuse) which was chilling in its ... routine use of sexual words and phrases," Hamilton said.

"I have no hesitation in concluding that the sexual degradation of the child by the accused has had a very detrimental effect."

The judge said the boy's continuing problems illustrate the long-term damage sexual abuse can cause children.

"This case ... presents itself as a portrait of the devastating consequences of child sexual abuse," Hamilton said.

The judge convicted Ismail, 32, last October of sexual contact with a minor after rejecting his claim DNA found during an examination of the child likely got there when the boy laid on his bed.

She said his evidence was "so illogical and preposterous as to lead to the conclusion it was concocted in an effort to explain away very damning evidence."

Hamilton rejected defence lawyer Tonii Roulston's call for a four to 41/2-year sentence, saying such a term might have been applicable if Ismail had pleaded guilty.

She accepted Crown prosecutor Gord Haight's suggestion as sentence as high as seven years was warranted.

While the physical evidence proved Ismail raped the boy three years ago, when he was nine, she also accepted the child's testimony the abuse had started at age seven.

The child, who was not related to Ismail but frequently visited his home, disclosed to his father the abuse while reading about Sodom and Gomorra, the towns destroyed for the sexual sins of their inhabitants.

Because of remand time served since his arrest, Ismail will have to serve an additional five years and 41/2 months, Hamilton said.

He's also banned for life from places children frequent unless with another adult.
