The accused, who cannot be named to protect the identity of the victim, lived in the same neighbourhood as the victim in Sawoti, KwaZulu-Natal.
A 40-year-old man has been sentenced to two life terms after he was found guilty of raping a mentally disabled man on two different occasions in Sawoti, KwaZulu-Natal.
“The man first raped the 25-year-old victim as they were returning from a traditional ceremony at a nearby homestead. The victim reported the incident to his grandmother,” NPA spokesperson Natasha Kara said in a statement.However, it was provisionally withdrawn pending the outcome of DNA tests as the victim was unable able to give evidence in court due to his mental state.
“Neighbours told her that they had seen the victim at the accused’s house. She gathered together community members and went to the accused’s home.” “Following a medical examination, a second case of rape was opened against the accused and he was arrested.”
