Kedah local police have arrested four brothers who have been suspected of raping their own sister over the past three years.
It is alleged that they had been doing the heinous act repeatedly against the 13-year-old victim at their home in Bukit Kayu Hitam before they were caught.
The victim is said to have finally narrated the horrific crime of her six brothers to their mother, and a police report was immediately lodged last Sunday.

According to sources, all the suspects aged between 17 to 36 year old were detained at separate locations with two of them arrested, at around 5 PM yesterday. A preliminary investigation found that two other brothers of the victim were also involved and were then arrested between 1 to 4 PM yesterday.
It is understood that the victim is their step-sister from a different mother. Kedah Police Chief Datuk Kamarul Zaman said the case is currently being investigated in accordance with Section 376B of the Penal Code 14 (A) of the Child Sexual Offenses Act 2017.
