JOSEF Fritzl has visited the cellar where he imprisoned his daughter for 24 years and fathered seven children with her, police said yesterday.
Fritzl was taken from his prison cell in St Pölten on Thursday to his Amstetten house to give investigators a guided tour of the underground prison he constructed.

He was accompanied by three police officers and a judge who was taking testimony from him in court earlier in the week.

Judge Nikolaus Obrovski wanted details of Fritzl's alleged "escape plan" for his daughter and children if anything had happened to him during her years of solitary confinement.

Fritzl failed in his bid to convince authorities that he had installed a time-release clock that would let them out.
