'Home sweet home'? How can that be when there's a predator in your house and you never know who it might be? Sad but true. People say that being at home is the most safest place but not anymore. A daughter from Johor Bahru was raped by her own father ever since she was five years old. He was sentenced to 20 years jail and six strokes of the cane after an appeal was made on his previous sentence.
At first, Mohd Yani Che Den, 42,was sentenced to 12 years jail and three strokes of the cane late last year when his case was mentioned at a Sessions court here. DPP Farah Ezlin Yusop Khan, who prosecuted the case, argued that the sentence should be increased as the victim was traumatised as she had been molested and raped her since she was five years old.
Mohd Yani then asked for forgiveness and promised not to repeat his mistakes, but he should know that it's too late to apologize as things can never be the same again. He took his role as a father for granted and did not protect his own daughter.
