LAHAD DATU: Police are looking for a man suspected of having raped his foster daughter over a 15-year period from 2004 in the Lahad Datu area.
The suspect who is in his fifties, is alleged to have raped the 27-year-old woman since she was 12, with the last incident occurring in December last year.
In a statement issued today, Lahad Datu district police chief Nasri Mansor said the victim alleged that she was raped repeatedly over the years, with the incidents occurring between 10pm and 3am in three houses located in two squatter areas and the Kampung Sarip housing area.
The woman lodged a police report on July 28. She said she did not do so earlier because the suspect had threatened to kill her and her two younger siblings. The three of them lived with the suspect after their parents divorced when the victim was aged 12.
She finally made the report because she could no longer stand the abuse, he said., and had been sent for a medical examination.
The police chief said investigations were under way. He urged anyone with information to contact the nearest police station
