Wike argued that the current punishment is not heavy enough, adding that the move will deter sexual offenders from molesting minors.

According to the judge, society should step up punishments for people who defile children beyond life imprisonment or a 14-year jail term.

She said, “We should do much more. I think we should do something that will be really drastic, that will make them think twice before they do that.

“I cannot think of anything better than having legislation that whatever it is that whatever part of your body you use on a child while defiling the child, that part should be cut off. If it is your finger, if it is your mouth, if it is your private part.

“I think men will take it more seriously when you come up with such legislation. I hope a man in the House of Reps or Senate sponsors a bill like that.” she added
