A
23-year-old man has been arrested for forcefully sleeping with his own mother.
After abusing his 58-year-old mother on July 3, the young man took to his heels
to an unknown destination. He has been on the wanted list of the local police
before luck eventually ran out him.
As the hide
and seek game continued, on Monday, July 10, the culprit was apprehended by
members of a transport association. After they caught up with him, they handed
him over to the police. The incident which happened in Elliot, South Africa has
added to public concern over the increased rate of sexual abuse in the country.
According to
the Police Report, a young man raped his mom at her home in a locality in
Elliot on July 3. After the pitiable act, he fled the area and could not be
traced for several days. It was on Monday, July 10, 2017, that members of the
taxi association identified the suspect. He was promptly arrested by them and
was handed to the SAPS.
The Cluster
Commander, Colonel Gezani of The South African Police Service (SAPS),
confirming the incident, thanked the community for their effort in supporting
the police in their duties. He noted that the incident has shown that a strong
partnership between local communities and the security service is of
inestimable value to the fight against crime in the country.
It should be
noted that South Africa has witnessed high cases of sexual abuse in recent
years. In a town in Eastern Cape, a 95-year-old woman lost her life at her home
earlier this year after she was forcefully abused sexually. Also in Hebron, Pretoria, three South African
teenage boys were arrested for sexually abusing a dog, after they had carnal
knowledge of the home pet.
