The official is alleged to have had sexual relations with an inmate.
The department says he s been suspended pending the investigation.
Spokesperson, Thulani Mdluli says the department is treating the matter as a rape case because of the vulnerability of the inmate involved. The investigation - which we are waiting in anticipation - is going to give us more information of what actually happened because initially, the offender didn t say that he raped her.
