A lorry driver has been detained by the police for alleged incest involving his teenage step-daughter.
The 19-year-old has since given birth to a baby girl.
The police have remanded the suspect for six days to facilitate investigations.
Ipoh police chief, ACP Sum Chang Keong said the arrest followed a report lodged by the suspect's wife on May 29, at the Kampung Simee police station here.
He said the 40-year-old wife felt betrayed by the lorry driver when she learnt of his secret affair with her daughter.
"The woman has been married to the suspect since 2011, and has a four-year-old daughter from their marriage," Sum said in a statement here yesterday.
