Police ask for assistance with PE rape case

27 October 2016 By Alan Straton

Rape Suspect
Can you assist the SAPS in identifying this man?

The Family violence, Child Protection and Sexual offences unit is investigating a case of rape and attempted murder where a 24 year old woman from Port Elizabeth is a victim.

It is alleged that on 2016-10-01 at approximately 02:00 the victim was lured from a club in central Port Elizabeth by three suspects and taken to Walmer. The victim alleged that she was taken to a flat where one of the suspects attempted to rape her. The victim managed to fight him off and that is when the suspect contacted the other two suspects to fetch the victim from the flat. At that stage the victim was under the impression that they were going taking her back to Central, but instead they drove into a bushy Victoria Drive area where she was allegedly raped by both men and badly assaulted. The suspects left her ‘for dead’ in the bushes. The victim managed to find her way back to Victoria Drive and was assisted by members of the public.

Police are looking for this man whom they believe can assist them in their investigation. Anyone who knows this person or the whereabouts of this person is asked to contact D/Sgt Sonika Van Der Merwe from the FCS unit on 0714752

I have cherished the idea of a democratic and free society. If need be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die." See more articles by Alan.
