MUMBAI: A 40-year-old man was arrested on Sunday for molesting his daughter over the past three years. Ram Singh (name changed), a labourer at an imitation jewellery workshop, will be produced before a metropolitan court on Monday. 

Singh lived in Ambhujwadi, Malwani, with his wife, two daughters and a son. The 18-year-old victim's ordeal began in November 2009 when her mother had gone to UP to take care of the victim's ailing granddad. "The victim and her siblings were in Singh's care at that time. While the victim was asleep at night, Singh touched her inappropriately. When she woke up, Singh threatened her with a knife and molested her," an officer said. 

When the girl's mother returned, the victim confided in her. When her mother confronted Singh, he stopped talking to his family. He would return late from work and go straight to bed. Whenever he found the victim alone, he would continue to molest her, the police said. 

On May 2, Singh again molested the girl. When she raised an alarm, her mother woke up and pushed him out. On Sunday, the girl and her mother approached the cops. Singh was arrested for molestation and criminal intimidation.
