Police in Klerksdorp arrested a 30-year-old man who allegedly used Facebook to lure his victims, before accosting them at knifepoint and raping them.
A team made up of the Klerksdorp Family Violence, Child Protection and Sexual Offences Unit and the Provincial Organised Crime Unit investigators, on Friday arrested a 30-year-old serial rapist in an effort to bring to book those who perpetrate acts of violence against women.
"They also had conversations on WhatsApp upon which the victim agreed to meet with the suspect in the evening on Saturday, 30 May 2020 at a grocery store in Klerksdorp. "The victim was eventually threatened with a knife, raped and robbed of her personal belongings," Myburgh said. "Subsequently, the suspect allegedly took the victim to an open field where he threatened her with a knife and raped her. He also robbed the victim of her personal belongings. Investigation into the matter continues and the police cannot rule out the possibility of linking the suspect to other cases," Myburgh said.
