Man is arrested for ‘raping three-year-old daughter when she came to stay with him for Father’s Day’

A man has been arrested after allegedly raping his three-year-old daughter on Father’s Day in Brazil.

The unnamed man, 46, was detained by police in Montes Claros in the state of Minas Gerais on Sunday August 13 – Father’s Day in Brazil – when the young girl later complained she was in pain.

The girl had been visiting her father to celebrate the holiday when the alleged sexual abuse occurred, according to regional outlet O Tempo.

Her horrified mother immediately notified authorities of her daughter’s claim and took the girl to hospital for a medical examination, according to Brazilian media. 

The mother, 43, became suspicious when the girl’s father did not return her at 6pm as agreed.

The pair separated prior to their daughter’s birth but continued to live near one another, and the girl had spent time at her dad’s apartment during the day.

After trying unsuccessfully to contact her former partner for 90 minutes, he arrived around 7:30pm. 

When the girl’s mother went down to collect her, she found the man seemingly drunk, with her daughter left lying on a nearby bench. 

Shortly after returning home, the girl began to complain of pain and explained what her father had done.

Brazilian media reported that police first attended the hospital to take statements from the girl and her mother, before descending on the father’s apartment.

The incident report revealed he appeared drunk and strongly resisted arrest before attempting to flee.

Officers ultimately managed to restrain him and arrested him on suspicion of child abuse and rape of a vulnerable person, crimes which carry a 15-year sentence in Brazil. 

The horrific case comes amid reports that a 29-year-old woman was violently raped in France by a man who was also accused of sexually abusing his young sister.

In a sickening case that has sent shockwaves through France, Oumar N. broke into the woman’s home in the northwestern city of Cherbourg, grabbed her by the neck and hit her repeatedly in the face and across her body.  

The horrified woman was thrown across the room and raped ‘several times’ by the attacker who also tortured her, reports Le Figaro.

The victim is still in a coma and is fighting for her life 11 days after medics operated on her extensive injuries for several hours.

‘Investigators are shocked, they have never seen so much barbarity,’ a source familiar with the matter told Le Figaro. 

Now, it has emerged that Oumar N. is already under investigation for sexually assaulting his 12-year-old sister last year, a police source told Le Figaro.
