TWO MINOR GIRLS WERE RAPED IN UNRELATED INCIDENTS

Captain Sandra Janse van Rensburg, police spokesperson said on Monday, 12 April 2021 the first case was reported.

“At approximately 17:00 an 11-year-old girl from Gelvandale was lured from her home in Ibex Street, to a house in Fitchard Road, Gelvandale by a family member.”

Janse van Rensburg said on arriving at the house they went to a shack at the back where her family member left the girl.

“She was then raped by a man known to her. Police are looking for a person known as Warren who may be of assistance in the investigation.”

She said in the second unrelated incident a 13-year-old was raped.
