SINGAPORE (ANN): A Primary 2 girl approached her father for help with her homework but instead, he made her perform a sexual act on him behind a locked bedroom door.
Over a period of four years, from 2010 to 2013, the girl continued to suffer sexual abuse at the hands of her father, who stopped only when she was in Primary 6.
On Monday , the girl's 53-year-old father, a retail sales supervisor, was sentenced to 12½ years' jail by the High Court after he pleaded guilty to two charges of aggravated sexual assault by penetration and one charge of aggravated molestation.The man cannot be named, as there is a gag order to protect the victim's identity.
The couple's relationship was strained at the time, the court heard. As the wife had to work the night shift, the accused was primarily responsible for looking after the children. In 2016, the victim got into a relationship with her Secondary 2 classmate. She started confiding in him about the abuse the following year.
During this time, the victim continued seeing her boyfriend, despite disapproval from her parents, who wanted her to focus on her studies.
