Does legislation explicitly criminalise marital rape?, 2015

Legislation explicitly criminalizes marital rape is whether there is legislation that explicitly criminalizes the act of marital rape by providing that rape or sexual assault
provisions apply “irrespective of the nature of the relationship” between the perpetrator and complainant or by stating that “no marriage or other relationship shall
constitute a defense to a charge of rape or sexual assault under the legislation”.
