A 62-year-old father has pleaded not guilty to charges alleging that he raped and sexually assaulted his 15-year-old daughter.
The man is charged with 4 counts of rape and two counts of sexual assault.
The alleged incidents happened between October and November last year in Lami.
It was revealed in court today that the matter came to light after the girl informed her mother and her friend of the alleged incidents.
The defence informed Judge, Justice Daniel Goundar that they have not filed for bail yet as they are facing difficulties in finding a second surety and a alternate place for the accused to stay.
He has been remanded in custody and the case has been adjourned till the 27th of next month.
