Man tries to justify act with daughter during hotel raid
A 60-year-old man, who had sex with his daughter, told religious department officers that incest was permissible because she had taken a vow of slavery, Harian Metro reported.
The tabloid said the man and his daughter, in her 30s, were caught by the Federal Territory Islamic Department (Jawi) officers at a hotel in Jalan Putra, Kuala Lumpur, at 1 a.m. on Wednesday.
The man was in shorts while his daughter was naked under the sheets when the officers raided the room.
“The man brazenly said his partner was his daughter who lived in Medan, Indonesia, with his second wife, who is an Indonesian,” a source was quoted by the newspaper.
“The officers believe the father and daughter had already had sex based on condoms and sex pills found in the room.”
During interrogation, the man said he slept with his daughter because it was “permissible” according to religion.
