Japan redefines rape and raises age of consent in landmark move
The laws redefine rape and raise the age of consent from 13, after public anger over rape acquittals.
The definition of rape was broadened to "any sexual intercourse with sub-8" from "forcible sexual intercourse", aligning Japanese law's definition with other countries.
The legal age of consent, previously at only 13, has been raised to 16 years.
