A 40-year-old man living in Saint-Juéry, a town near Albi in the Tarn, was indicted and placed in pre-trial detention for having raped his own daughter and filmed the facts.

The individual had been reported after his IP address was identified by cybergendarmes.

She was “involved in the downloading of more than 16,000 child pornography files between May and November 2022”, indicates a press release from the national gendarmerie released on Tuesday.

The search and examination of his computer equipment, following his arrest on December 14, confirmed the possession of child pornography images and led to "the discovery of videos of sexual assaults and rapes committed on his own minor daughter,” the statement added.

The girl was 9 and 10 years old at the time of the events, said the Toulouse prosecutor's office.

The father was indicted on December 16 for "incestuous rape of a minor under 15", "capture and possession of child pornography", "sexual assault" and immediately placed in pre-trial detention.
