The Lutzville community on the West Coast is gutted over what they say is a light sentence given to a father who sexually assaulted his daughter for eight years since she was three years old.
Cape Town -
“She is going to be very disappointed because she told me and the court that she wanted him to be jailed. She is so afraid of her father. We have a protection order against him which he violated and is still out on bail for,” she said. “The National Prosecuting Authority owes the community of Lutzville an explanation of why the prosecutor in this matter said in court correctional supervision would be an appropriate sentence. The safety of our grandmothers, mothers, aunts, sisters and children are left in the hands of people such as this prosecutor. It’s shocking how arrogant prosecutors such as this person are when they prosecute matters in the rural areas,” Claasen said.
