London, Dec 1 : In a rather horrific turn of events, evidence has emerged, which show that authorities should have probed the misdeeds of “British Fritzl” long back.

The 56-year-old monster, nicknamed “The Gaffer,” raped his two sex-slave daughters thousands of times in the span of 30 years, making them pregnant 19 times.

And now, his niece has come out in open to claim that she had made rape allegations against her own father when she was eight, which should have prompted the social services to make a full-scale investigation.
