A father has been found guilty of committing sexual offenses against his biological daughter by a Lautoka judge. Justice Sunil Sharma ruled on two counts of sexual assault and one count of rape related to incidents that occurred in the previous year and in the early part of this year.
According to court records, the father committed acts of rape on two separate occasions while at the home of the child’s grandmother. The first incident took place when the victim was exiting the bathroom, and she later informed her mother about the harassment she experienced from her father. In another incident, while the daughter was sleeping alongside her siblings, the father assaulted her again. The situation came to light when her oldest sister witnessed the crime being committed.
In his judgment, Justice Sharma dismissed the accused’s denial of the allegations, deeming it implausible given the evidence presented. He expressed that the defense’s claim of innocence lacked credibility and was not believable. The judge noted that the accused’s actions displayed elements of indecency that would be condemned by any reasonable person.
This case highlights the unwavering commitment of the justice system to protect victims of such heinous crimes and to hold offenders accountable for their actions. It underscores the importance of speaking out against abuse, as it can lead to justice and prevention of future incidents.
Summary: A father has been convicted for sexual crimes against his daughter, receiving sentences for multiple counts of assault and rape. The judge emphasized the importance of accountability in such cases and the need to support victims who come forward.
