'German Josef Fritzl' jailed

A man whose stepdaughter bore eight of his children has been jailed in Germany for 14½ years.

The 48-year-old identified as "Detlef S", admitted sexually abusing his biological daughter as well as forcing her and his stepdaughter into prostitution.

The unemployed lorry driver, dubbed "the German Josef Fritzl", began abusing his stepchildren in 1987 when they were four years old and he had continued until his arrest in 2010.

Detlef S's stepson, who was also abused, said he and his sisters had waited 13 years for this conviction.
