Today at 16:54

A man who sexually abused his daughter for several years in an “egregious” breach of trust, causing her to grow up in a “house of secrets”, has been jailed for 11 years.

The Co Cork man was found guilty by a jury of 71 counts of rape, oral rape, indecent assault and sexual assault of his child following a Central Criminal Court trial in Cork last year. He has no previous convictions and does not accept the verdicts of the jury.
