THE abused daughter of ‘Brazil’s Josepf Fritzl’ made her dash for freedom after drugging her monster dad.
The brave girl alerted police to the two-decade nightmare the family faced after she slipped him sleeping pills.
Police then conducted a month-long investigation of the isolated home in the state of Minas Gerais.
They now allege the escapee, her six siblings, mother, and even grandmother all were allegedly kept in solitary confinement and sexually abused over decades.
The 52-year-old father was said to be so brutal that he has been compared to infamous Austrian incestuous abuser Josepf Fritzl.
He has now been charged with crimes of false imprisonment, rape of a vulnerable person, psychological violence, abortion and concealment of a corpse.
One of the daughters survived an abortion while she was a six-month-old fetus after being rescued by a midwife.
But police did uncover three buried fetuses in the garden, with one nearly full-term at eight months old.
The man’s wife had endured the horror since she was just 17 and faced the abuse for 23 years.
She had been forced to undergo three abortions after being forced to take medication.
The man’s children, which were still alive, were aged three to 22.
The man reportedly drilled holes in the walls to spy on his daughters as they dressed and bathed.
Since their rescue and the man’s arrest, his family have been relocated to a different state for their protection.
Police spokesperson Herika Ribeiro Sena said the wife, now safe, was only ever allowed to leave the house to receive benefits, often under the suspect’s watchful eye.
Sena said: “None of the neighbours knew her, not even relatives had access to her.”
