Two university students were raped at their residence in Limpopo during an armed robbery on Tuesday.
The incident occurred at the University of Venda’s off-campus residence, according to Brig Motlafela Mojapelo.
“It is alleged four suspects, one armed with a firearm, broke into the rooms of three students outside the university premises in Thohoyandou P West. They robbed a 30-year-old male student of money and a cellphone before proceeding to the other rooms, where they robbed two female students of cellphones and a laptop.
“The suspects then dragged the female two victims, both aged 23, to nearby bushes and gang-raped them” said Mojapelo. Police have launched a manhunt for the suspects and called on those who may have information to come forward.
