He said: “She feels hunted – I know that sooner or later she will break.”

The victim’s father’s interview comes one week after the 25-year-old footballer was freed from prison after serving two-and-a-half years for raping his daughter in 2012.

He has refused to apologise to his victim, claiming that he is innocent and that the sex was consensual.

In defence of his daughter, the victim’s father said: “Evans needs to apologise to my daughter rather than his girlfriend and to just shut the whole campaign down.

‘He’s shown no remorse and every time he makes some fresh appeal or comment, he draws attention to my daughter and risks her being identified and found.

“She went into hiding because people were trying to track her down and kill her. There are only so many times you can keep changing your name. I don’t believe she’s that strong.”

The law entitles the victim to lifelong anonymity, but supporters of Evans revealed her name on Twitter causing her to lose her job and forcing her to move away from her family and change her name.

Her father continued: “She’s having to go from one place to another. What kind of an animal is he to sit there in that video and keep destroying her?

“He’s not only raped my daughter but added insult to injury. He’s still hurting her now that he’s out with the things he’s saying.

“Every time she moves she has to cut with her old friends and make new friends. She is living the life of a prisoner.”
