A 42-year-old man in Visakhapatnam was arrested for repeatedly raping his 15-year-old minor daughter. He was sent to judicial remand on Sunday.

According to police the father got angry on the girl because she spent too much on her phone and raped her. As per reports, the father allegedly raped her multiple times.

The girl recently shared with her teacher about the sexual assault. The teacher reportedly called her father to the school and the accused apologised. The girl later got the courage to file a police complaint with the help of the teacher.

The girl and her father had to live here as her mother had fallen sick and was currently undergoing treatment at her mother’s house. The girl is taking care of her father. They are living without mother since five months. 

On receiving complaint, the police arrested the accused and the girl was sent for tests. The police also got to know while investigating the case that the accused had got one kidney from his wife as he had fallen ill two years ago and faced kidney failure.
