Four people have appeared in Belfast Magistrates Court facing charges of rape and child cruelty.
Two men, one believed to be the child's uncle, the second man - a friend of the family - have been remanded in custody charged with raping a nine-year-old girl.
The child's uncle is also charged with indecent assault, gross indecent assault and making indecent images of children.
The child's mother, 44, was also remanded in custody charged with child cruelty, while her grandmother, 63, was released on bail and ordered to stay out of east Belfast and away from the child.
The charges are understood to have come after details of the abuse were found written in the girl's diary.
The offences are alleged to have taken place between December 2002 and June this year.
