A 42-year-old man will appear in the Postmasburg Magistrate’s Court on June 14 for allegedly raping a 104-year-old grandmother, Northern Cape police said.
Senior Superintendent Elias Mbanyana said on Wednesday the man had appeared in court on Tuesday. He was denied bail and his case was postponed.
The man was arrested on Friday night after he allegedly raped the woman at her home in Daniëlskuil.
”The grandmother is staying with her grandson, who was not home. When the boy came back he found the grandmother and this man together. Afterwards she told him that the man had raped her. The boy then raised the alarm,” Mbanyana said.
The woman was taken to Postmasburg hospital and later discharged. — Sapa
