A 58-year-old man who allegedly touched his daughter’s buttocks in an attempt to rape her, risks a life sentence if found guilty.

It is alleged that George Apiyo tried to seduce his 17-year-old daughter to sleep with him at their Komarock home on August 28.

The court heard that this was not the first time Apiyo had attempted to have sex with his daughter.

After the girl revealed the August 28 ordeal to her uncle, the matter was reported to police, who arrested Apiyo.
