A 27-year-old KwaZulu-Natal man has been sentenced to two life terms in prison for raping his niece in Umlazi in 2021 and last year.
According to police spokesperson Colonel Robert Netshiunda, the child told her mother about the rape after her mother discovered that she hadn't attended school.
"The crying child confessed to the mother that she was raped by her uncle on the night of 3 September 2022. [The man] had lured his niece to his shack, where he gagged her ... and raped her. Investigations also unearthed that [he] had also raped the girl in a similar manner in 2021." "After making several court appearances, [the man] was removed from society and condemned to jail for the rest of his life."
