Austrian woman says held, abused by father 24 yrs
By Heinz-Peter Bader
AMSTETTEN, Austria (Reuters) - Austrian police have arrested a man they believe imprisoned his daughter in a windowless basement for 24 years, abused her and fathered seven children with her.
Police said the woman, identified as 42-year-old Elisabeth F, told them her father Josef had lured her into the basement of the block where the family lived in Amstetten in 1984, and drugged and handcuffed her before locking her up in the dungeon.
Three of her children were locked up since birth in the basement of the drab, grey building along with their mother and had never seen sunlight or received any education, police said.
Authorities were still trying to piece together details of the case, which is reminiscent of that of Austrian Natascha Kampusch who spent eight years locked up in a windowless cell before dashing to freedom in August 2006.
Police said Josef, a 73-year-old electrical engineering technician by training, was in custody and had told investigators how to enter the basement prison through a small hidden door, operated by a secret code which only he had known.
"There is not only one, but a number of rooms: one room to sleep in, one to cook, and there are also sanitation facilities," Franz Polzer, head of the criminal investigations unit in the province of Lower Austria, told broadcaster ORF.
Josef's wife Rosemarie had been unaware of what happened to her daughter and it was assumed Elisabeth had disappeared voluntarily when her parents received a letter from her saying they should not search for her.
Elisabeth gave birth to seven children during her ordeal, one of whom died shortly after being born, police said.
Three of the younger children were brought up by Josef and his wife after they were left at the building, the first child accompanied by a note from Elisabeth saying she was unable to care for the baby herself.
Three others, including the two eldest aged 18 and 19, and the youngest, aged 5, had been locked up in the basement with their mother since birth.
"The father seems to be very authoritarian and decided what happened and what was supposed to happen in the family -- and today we know why he very closely guarded the basement," Polzer said.
LOCKED UP SINCE BIRTH
The case only came to light when the oldest child became seriously ill and was taken to hospital in Amstetten. Josef said that child had also been left unconscious on his doorstep, according to media reports.
A 19-year-old girl, who was seriously ill and is still fighting for her life, was last weekend dropped off at the hospital in Amstetten.
Doctors appealed for the girl's mother, who at that time was believed to have disappeared, to come forward to provide more details about the daughter's medical history.
Josef then brought Elisabeth and her remaining two children out of the dungeon, telling his wife that their "missing" daughter had chosen to return home, police said.
"This is not a mother abandoning her child which then had to be admitted to hospital in a serious condition ... We know that she herself has been kept imprisoned by her own father for 24 years in the basement and furthermore she obviously was also subjected to sexual abuse," Polzer said.
After questioning and assurances that she would have no further contact with her father -- who she said abused her from the age of 11 -- Elisabeth agreed to make a "comprehensive statement".
The news sent shockwaves through Amstetten, a town of around 22,000 some 130 km west of the capital Vienna.
"It is so horrible, I can see the house from my balcony and from my window and when I think now of who was in there, I can simply not imagine that,"
neighbour Corina Schmid told ORF as onlookers gathered in the street outside the three-storey building and investigators in white suits continued their search of the premises."I spoke to (Rosemarie) at Christmas, and she told me they didn't know where the daughter was, she had simply vanished," neighbour Margarete Gollonitsch told the broadcaster.
Rosemarie, as well as Elisabeth and her children were receiving psychological counselling. DNA samples of all those involved were taken and would be analysed, police said.

What the fuck?!? This is some serious incest shit going on man, what the hell are those bastards thinking, seriously. How could a normal man do this to their own offspring, and the best part is, the wife don't even know whats happening right under he feet for TWENTY-FOUR FREAKIN YEARS!!
Wouldn't she be curious about the sounds coming from her basement?? I mean, he freaking rapes the girl and wouldn't the girl shout and all??? Not to mention the voices of babies crying and all. How could she be so ignorant about everything going on RIGHT UNDER THE VERY HOUSE SHE'S STAYING IN!!!!
Ok fine with that, maybe she really doesn't give a damn, but aren't you suppose to be a lil curious about your own husband's obsession and bringing stuffs down to the basement?? 24 years is a loooooooooooonnnggggggg time. ANDDD Aren't you even a bit curious about your daughter's "sudden" return to home??? For fuck's sake she's your daughter!! I'm utterly disgusted right now by her ignorance.
Don't get me started at the diuniasengcibailanchaoKNSbabikia husband now, words can't describe the actions he has taken on another fellow human being, not to mention thats her daughter we're talking about. URGH! I for one, believe in karma, and freaking hope karma will get right back up your ass when it comes.
I'm still in disbelieve after writing this, shit's really fuck up. Makes me wonder what the hell is wrong with humanity these days...
On the lighter side, heres my one of my favourite song.
