PETALING JAYA:
A man who allegedly sodomised, raped and sexually abused his teenage daughter more than 600 times over a period of two years has been charged at the Special Court for Sexual Crimes Against Children in Putrajaya.

According to the New Straits Times, there are 632 charges against the man under the Penal Code, Sexual Offences Against Children Act 2017 (SOACA), and the Child Act 2016.

The report said the 36-year-old man had allegedly committed the acts on his daughter ever since his divorce in 2015.

The daughter, who is now 15, had gone to live with him and only revealed her ordeal to her mother after learning that her father was planning to take her two younger sisters to live with them as well.

Court proceedings only began at 2.50pm, some six hours after the man arrived, as the deputy public prosecutor and investigating officer spent the morning counting the multitude of charge sheets.
