Today we carry the shocking story of Sandra who discovered she was born as a result of rape.

She was outraged and horrified to find that such a terrible act brought her into the world.

It was made worse by the fact she suffered a disturbed and unhappy childhood with people not wanting to know her.

After all that trauma it may seem surprising she wants to find where this man is now living and to meet him.

The natural reaction might be to expunge this man from her memory and try to make a fresh start.

But Sandra is determined to find her father and discover a whole different side to her life.

It's unlikely she will succeed. The man could be dead. If alive, he is probably in his 70s.

Even if he became aware of her pleas, it's highly probable he would refuse to respond to them.

But it's worth the try because, as we reveal, this man was not a stranger to the family and his name is known.

He committed an awful act 40 years ago and was punished for it. But if he has a scrap of compassion in him, he will make contact with the daughter he brought so brutally into the world and put her mind at rest.
