A 23-year-old man has been arrested for the rape and sodomy of baby Tshepang at the age of nine months in October last year, police reported on Thursday. The man was arrested at Vredenburg in the Western Cape early on Thursday morning. ”Evidence has been obtained which positively links the suspect to the crime,” national police commissioner Jackie Selebi’s office said in a statement. ”We will not, at this stage, elaborate on the nature of the evidence as it forms part of the case to be presented in court against the suspect.” The man was being transported from Vredenburg to Upington, where he was expected to appear in court shortly. – Sapa
