A 15-year-old girl tried to run away from home after her father raped, sodomised and molested her.

In an attempt to runaway to Kedah from Ampang during CMCO, she was detained by police at the Southern Integrated Terminal (TBS). After further investigations, it was revealed that the girl was trying to get back to her mother and that she was unable to stand the abuse going on at home. She even attempted suicide. Ampang police chief Assistant Commissioner Mohamad Farouk Eshak said,

“In her statement, the victim said she wanted to go back to her mother in Kuala Nerang, Kedah, as she could not stand what her father had been doing to her. The victim had attempted suicide in June by drinking floor cleaning detergent. The victim is the only child and still schooling in Ampang. She lives with the suspect together with her stepmother and four step-siblings.”

Further investigations revealed that the suspect had won custody over his daughter in September 2020 after the divorce in 2004. He brought her to Bukit Antarabangsa to live with him.

Prior to abusing his daughter, the man already had a criminal record for raping his sister-in-law.

Yesterday (1o Nov), the 42-year-old father was charged with 41 counts of incest, 14 counts of raping his daughter from a previous marriage, 18 counts of sodomising her and 9 counts of molesting her. He pleaded not guilty to all charges.

The rape charges carry a maximum sentence of 20 years of imprisonment and whipping under conviction.

The incest charges carry a maximum sentence of 30 years in jail and whipping if convicted.

The abuse had taken place since January 2020 and continued until October 2020. The offences were allegedly committed within the confines of their house in Bukit Antarabangsa or in a bush near their home.

Deputy public prosecutor S. Sangitaa did not offer bail to the accused. She said,

“The relationship between the accused and the victim is father and daughter. The accused might abscond or disturb the victim. He was supposed to be a guardian to his daughter, but did otherwise by committing sexual offences instead.”

As someone who runs his own company, the accused pleaded for minimum bail, stating that he needed to get back to managing his business and protecting the welfare of his employees. He also insisted that he needed to take care of his wife and other children during the COVID-19 pandemic. His bail was denied.

The man will be charged with 9 other counts of sexual crimes tomorrow.
