A man has surrendered to the police after his wife lodged a report claiming that he had raped and sodomised their teenage daughter in Johor Baru on Tuesday.

Johor Baru Selatan Police chief ACP Sulaiman Salleh said the 42-year-old man surrendered himself at about 7.30pm yesterday.

He said the rape victim was a 17-year-old Form Five student at a school in Selangor who had come home on March 11 to undergo treatment for epilepsy.
