Bibiani Circuit Court has remanded a 33-year-old man for allegedly defiling his biological daughter at Dogokrom, a farming community in Aowin Municipality of the Western North Region.
Yaw Sarfo Job was charged on three counts of defilement, incest and threatening the life of his daughter.
According to reports, Yaw has been defiling his Junior High School (JHS) daughter, in their family home since she was in class three.
The victim is said to have suffered from the abuse, and as a result, she informed her head teacher of the series of sexual acts her biological father has been having with her.
The head teacher, Eric Afrifa, of Awuakrom M/A JHS subsequently reported the matter to the police and caused the arrest of the suspect.
Meanwhile, the victim told Adom News that she was forced to abort her father's baby when he impregnated her.
She revealed that her father threatened to kill her if she tells anyone about the issue.
Mr Sarfo has divorced his first and second wives and took custody of his four children; the victim and three other boys.
