Father raped daughter at reunion after 20 years

melbourne - A man holding his daughter had not seen since its birth 20 years ago, raped her at their reunion in 2014. The woman had found her father after a long search and invited home, even though she knew he had been in prison because of several violent crimes.

That was shown by the Australian newspaper
The Age during the appeal against the man Monday.

The man was staying with his partner and their son by the woman. Initially, the meeting went well, as testified the victim: 'It was the first time I saw my father. He was also happy to see me. I was so excited and happy to finally meet my real father. '

It got out of hand when father and daughter gave each other a hug. He tried to kiss the victim and then followed her as she walked into the bedroom. There he raped her, while he said that he would always love her. The woman did not dare to oppose her father because she knew of his violent past.

The man was sentenced on appeal to three years in prison for incest. That punishment is less than the judgment at first instance, because it is found that the man is mentally retarded. The charge of rape, which was also denied by the man could not be proven.
