eShowe man in court for daughters' rape
An eShowe father is expected in the dock today for allegedly raping his two daughters - ages 8 and 13.
The 39-year-old man was arrested over the weekend after social workers got word of the rapes.
A social worker arrived at the family's home on Friday and took the eight-year-old girl for a medical examination at a hospital.
The results confirmed the child had been raped. Police could not confirm if her sister also underwent an examination.
