Man held for raping daughter for 6 yrs

Kuala Lumpur, April 7: A Malaysian man has been charged for raping his 16-year-old daughter for the past six years. The man admitted to the offence after his daughter lodged a police complaint.

It is believed that the girl had dropped out of school and had been sexually assaulted on numerous occasions since the age of 10.

City police chief Deputy Commissioner Datuk Wira Muhammad Sabtu Osman said a man was picked up at the Taman Wahyu people's housing project.

"The girl, fed up with the constant sexual assaults, finally summoned up the courage to lodge a police report against her father," The Star Online quoted him as saying.

The girl's taxi driver father has been remanded for seven days.
