According to the victim’s mother, she suffered from severe post-traumatic stress disorder and anxiety as well as ongoing self-harming and suicidal ideation.

“All this because of him,” the Irish Independent reported the mother as saying.

The victim, now 17, also developed an eating disorder and has “lost a lot of weight”.

“Our daughter doesn’t want to have a shape in case it attracts men,” the mother said.

The victim has also developed insomnia as well, with the mother saying she looks like a “walking corpse” because of the lack of food and sleep.

“Before this, she was a really bright and high-achieving girl. She was happy, loving and caring. He took all of that away,” she said.

Last week, it was reported that Amirul Arif Yunos had pleaded guilty to six counts of engaging in a sexual act with a child, one count of sexually exploiting a child, and one of meeting a child for the purpose of sexual exploitation.

The 38-year-old doctor was working with Ireland’s Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services centre in Clonskeagh, Dublin, at the time the offences were committed.

It was reported that the girl’s parents had engaged Amirul on an ad hoc basis as she was struggling with her mental health.

The girl was 15 when Amirul committed most of the offences against her, and 16 when the final incident occurred in September last year.

The Irish Independent also reported that the victim attempted suicide three times last week “over the stress of her abuser’s criminal case finally coming to an end”.

€2,000 in compensation

According to the paper, Amirul had offered his victim €2,000 (about RM9,300) in compensation before his court appearance.

However, the offer was seen as “the greatest insult” by her parents and was subsequently rejected.

The mother also said she was disgusted by Yunos’s family and others who had vouched for his good character.

“It’s scary to think of how much tolerance these people have towards such sadistic crimes against a child,” she said.
