KAJANG: He was supposed to shower his three daughters with love and raise them up as a loving father but instead it was the opposite.

The 32-year-old man is now being held for allegedly sexually assaulting them.

It is learnt that the girls, aged one, three and five, claimed that their father had repeatedly assaulted them by inserting his fingers in their private parts.

Their mother, a 32-year-old marketing executive, only found out about the alleged perverted acts after one of the girls told her grandmothe­r on Oct 16.

OCPD Asst Comm Ahmad Dzaffir Mohd Yussof said the three-year-old girl claimed that her father had inserted his finger into her private parts.

“The girl’s mother then questioned the other two siblings, who revealed that their father did the same to them.

“She then lodged a police report on Oct 23 after gathering all informatio­n from her daughters,” he said when contacted.

ACP Ahmad Dzaffir said the couple were married for about eight years and have four children, including a seven-year-old boy.

“Initial investigat­ions showed that the three-year-old girl had told her grandmothe­r of the alleged acts last year but no one believed her,” he said.

ACP Ahmad Dzaffir said the three girls were sent to Kajang Hospital for a medical check-up.

“Doctors found old tears on their private parts but there were no signs of other assaults,” he said.

Police have arrested the suspect at his workplace in Sungai Long.
