A woman has secured a protection order against her husband after telling a court that he raped their teenage daughter on the family’s summer holiday last month.

At a behind-closed-doors hearing at a District Court in the south of the country, the woman alleged that the man also told his daughter that he would stab her mother and a brother if the mother quizzed him about what had taken place on their family holiday.
