WOMAN CHARGED WITH RAPE OF TWO YOUNG BOYS

A 44-year-old woman from Khorixas has been arrested for double rape after she allegedly had sexual intercourse with two young boys. One of the boys is thought to be only 10 years old. The age of his co-complainant is not known. The incident is said to have taken place near the power station at Khorixas last Wednesday. “The suspect is said to have followed the two boys from the Jabulani location on their way to town. She then caught up with them in the riverbed where she allegedly committed the crime,” Acting Police Liaison Officer Christopher Munyika said yesterday. “The two boys are still too young to realise what they were doing,” he added. – The Namibian
