Elisabeth Fritzl, who was enslaved in a dungeon for 24 years by her father Josef and raped repeatedly, is reportedly furious that he could be freed in just 14 years. She wants him to rot behind bars for the rest of his life, reported the Sun.

Dhe told her lawyer Eva Plaz that she wanted the fiend that justice chiefs in Austria owed that to her murdered newborn son Michael, who died because Fritzl, (73) would not seek medical help.

Plaz also revealed how Elisabeth bravely attended the four-day trial in St Poelten because she wanted to tell jurors not to believe her calculating father's lies.

Kerstin (20) -- one of her seven children fathered by Fritzl -- also came to court to confront him during sessions behind closed doors.

Elisabeth's decision to face her father for the first time forced him to change his pleas to guilty. Fritzl was convicted of murder, rape, slavery, incest, deprivation of liberty and coercion at the House of Horrors in Amstetten.

He was sentenced to life in a secure psychiatric institution. But under good behaviour guidelines he could be out in 14 years.

Fritzl, who is under suicide watch in jail, has already announced he won't appeal against his sentence.
