The suspect was said to have since 2013 consistently defiled his daughter at will, unknown to the family members, until she became pregnant.

THISDAY gathered that the victim was a loved child who had gone to live with his father and his new wife at No. 5 Kobe Street, Maryland, when her mother died.
