(A 14 years old boy who got arrested for RAPING a 17 years
old girl who was kidnapped and kept as a sex slave)
It is a pity how a 14 years old boy can rape a 17 years old girl and get bail after committing such a crime. A 35 year old man in Soweto kidnapped a 17 years old girl who way clammed to be mentally unstable and kept her in his home as a sex slave. During this week 7 young boys gang raped her and one of them was taking a video during the assault. The youngest of these boys was 14 years old and the oldest was 20 years old. When the girl's mother noticed that she had disappeared she called the police and informed them of what was going on and they started looking for her and investigated, only to find out that she was kidnapped.
Arrests were made but the astonishing part is that all of those boys are going to appear for a bail hearing www.media24.com ... I mean I do not understand! How can a person commit crime and get a bail? These boys are supposed to be locked up in jail for life because of what they did. For the fact that they raped a person that could not even understand what was going on and took a video of it and posted it on the internet for the fun of it was way out of line?! The most important question is that: Whom are we to blame, The parents or the law? If a 14 years old boy can rape a girl does he have a bright future ahead of him? Is South Africa moving forward or what?
What is the South African government doing about this? What ethics do we have as human being and what happened to our cultures. I am personally disappointed in what has happened and embarrassed... A 14 years old making headline all over South Africa for RAPE! How did his parents feel about this and what are they going to do about it? The government or the law should do something about this and take it into consideration by handling such matters in more appropriate ways or manners. People like this should be arrested and kept in jail 'FOR LIFE' weather they are young or not, because A CRIME IS A CRIME (without any bail of course)
These boys and men are making rape a trend now, it must really come to an end. This boy should root in jail for the rest of his life or he will carry on raping other girls knowing he is only going to get bail.
ReplyDeleteThat is the thing Dee, there is just way too much freedom in South Africa
DeleteJustice in South Africa is not taken seriously if cases such as rape are taken seriously and reasonable sentances are are put forward we could see Rape Crrime decreasind. I feel sorry for the poor victim.
ReplyDeleteI also feel pity for the victim but if the law says those boys must pay bail what can we do about it? i mean don't you think they can go and do it again?
