Orlando East police are investigating a case where a woman was raped by her fellow male tenant, Orlando East Police spokesperson Monica Hangwane said in a statement.
Hangwane said the victim alleged that she was at her home when the suspect called her.
“A complaint reported that she did not respond to the call and later on that day, the suspect knocked at the door around 21:00. She opened for him and at mid-night he started to force himself on the victim and had sex without her consent”, she said.
Meanwhile police are investigating a case where three males hijacked a car at Vilakazi Street, Orlando West in Soweto. Hangwane said it was reported that the victim was inside his car with girlfriend when they were approached by a white BMW.
“He said three armed males got out of BMW and approached them. They ordered his girlfriend to get out of the vehicle. The suspects entered the car, assaulted the victim and forcefully took the keys from him. The victim was taken to Lawley and was left there. The victim was assisted by the community to Ennerdale SAPS where he opened the case”, she said.
