    BEIJING, May 31 (Xinhuanet) -- Lindsay Lohan suffers from multiple addictions to alcohol and drugs, including the powerful painkiller OxyContin, the 20-year-old actress' estranged father told E! Online on Wednesday.

    "I spoke to the people treating Lindsay, because I wanted to make sure she was getting the right care," said Michael Lohan. "And I'm satisfied they are doing the right thing for her, helping her detox from the painkillers and things. That's a very important step."

    Michael, who was released from jail in March after serving almost two years for drunk-driving and other charges, said he also wanted to make sure Lindsay would be getting religious counseling.

    "And I learned they use the 12-step program," Michael said, "which includes a lot of lessons based on God's teachings, so I was satisfied with that. First she needs to get clean, then she needs to let God into her life."

    Lohan's rep, Leslie Sloane Zelnik, did not immediately comment on Wednesday.

    The "Mean Girls" star on Monday checked into her second rehab stint this year following a tumultuous weekend that included wrecking her Mercedes and being cited for driving under the influence.
