The South
African Police Service (SAPS) will continue to be viewed as part of South
Africa’s major crime problem if it is proven that a constable raped a woman in
Herbertsdale, a small town in the Eden Municipality district of the Western
Province.
Shockingly
ironic is that the 49-year old woman approached the policeman to report
domestic abuse. The 52-year old constable allegedly took her into the trauma
room and raped her.
She reported it
to the local police the next day but they chose not to respond. She then
reported it to a local councillor which led to the policeman’s arrest.
