Woman falsely accuses man of sexually abusing girl, 3

A court heard this afternoon how a woman accused the father of her child of defiling and sexually abusing their three-year-old daughter but forensic experts found that the girl's private part was "intact".  This emerged from the compilation of evidence against the 46-year-old woman, Rita Borg, from Mosta who stands charged with making calumnious allegations against her former boyfriend, William Micallef, and with filing a false police report or something she knew did not take place.  Magistrate Anthony Vella heard how on April 3 last year, the woman went to the Naxxar police station to report that Mr Micallef had sexually abused their daughter.  Police Inspector Josric Mifsud said he immediately informed the duty magistrate who appointed a court expert to examine the child.  The expert found that the girl's vagina was "intact" and that the girl had no signs of sexual abuse, leading the police to file criminal charges against the mother.  Inspector Mifsud said Mr Micallef usually picked up the daughter from the Naxxar police station, in accordance with a court order, and how he usually saw Ms Borg and Mr Micallef joking inside the police station.  Police Sergeant Kevin Buhagiar...
