Former WSU Assistant Found Guilty of Rape | Wichita News
Description
A Wichita jury has convicted former Wichita State grad assistant MD Barkat Mia of one count of rape, while acquitting him on two other charges in a case that erupted on campus after a friend accused him of sexual assault during a lab visit. The accuser said he locked the door and turned off the lights before the attack; Mia admitted to the act but claimed he didn’t take her objections seriously, citing their past relationship. Sentencing is set for October 2nd at 9:30 AM, as the legal process moves forward amid ongoing conversations about consent and accountability.
