According to the Wiki article, the sentence was 6-10, and he served 6.

Right - so maybe the family accepted the 4.5m php based on an expectation of the higher end rather than the minimum.  We don't know so all is just idle chat of course.

I wonder how many 'bar fines' it was based on...allowing for inflation of course ?     

Hard to work out, post covid or not as for the expected bar fines in the next few years will be lower or cheaper and for the many  past months of compulsory chastity belts where no sales could be generated have to be taken into account.

This is above my edumacation level so I wonder if Geoff might have some statistics or projections going forward to the new normal.

I have no personal experience with chastity belts and I must bow to your superior knowledge

Perhaps a volunteer could do some "field" work and report back?

OK, all the member I banned over the years step up. Once mission accomplished I will let you come back.

Here is the breakdown for the fine (wikipedia).
