In a shocking and disturbing case, a 39-year-old security guard has been remanded for seven days until September 5 after being arrested by Melaka police for allegedly raping and physically sexually assaulting his two biological daughters over a period of six years. The suspect's actions were uncovered when the 14-year-old victim confided in a classmate, who then informed a teacher.
According to Melaka deputy police chief Datuk Md Nazri Nawawi, the teacher called the victim for further questioning, but she initially denied having any problems at home. However, after the teacher pressed for more information, the victim eventually admitted to being raped by her biological father. The first incident occurred in July when the victim was at home, and her father asked her to massage his legs. A few weeks later, the victim's father repeated the heinous act after she returned from school, instructing her to shower before entering his room.
According to Malaymail, this revelation led to a confession from the victim's 18-year-old sister, who also admitted to being sexually abused by the suspect since 2018. The suspect had been physically sexually assaulting the older sister since she was 12 and raped her multiple times starting when she was 14. After she entered a vocational college at the age of 16, the suspect only continued with physical sexual assaults. She never told anyone about the incidents until she found out that her younger sister had also become a victim.
The remand order, effective until September 5, allows for further investigation under Section 376 (3) of the Penal Code for incest. This case highlights the importance of creating a safe and supportive environment for children to report any form of abuse or exploitation. It also underscores the need for parents, teachers, and caregivers to be vigilant and proactive in preventing such heinous crimes.
The Melaka police are to be commended for their swift action in arresting the suspect and ensuring that justice is served. The victims and their family will require support and counseling to overcome the trauma they have endured, and it is essential that they receive the necessary assistance to heal and rebuild their lives.
