A 24-year-old man is expected to appear in court on Thursday after allegedly raping a 13-year-old Eastern Cape girl. He was arrested on Wednesday near the PRD Building in Mthatha while on his way to East London, police spokesperson Captain Khaya Tonjeni said.
“It is alleged that the suspect forcefully took a 13-year-old minor and raped her on 12 December 2020 until the next day,” Tonjeni said. A case was reported at the Mqanduli police station but the man “managed to keep away from police radar”.
