Police said on Tuesday they had responded to frantic calls from the area and, on arrival, made the gruesome discovery of the man's badly burnt body.
The victim was certified dead on the scene. None of his attackers were present when officers arrived. The attack was prompted by allegations that the man had raped a 17-year-old mentally disabled girl in the area. “It is alleged that the girl went to the nearby bushes to collect fire wood with other women from the village when the deceased attacked them.
"The other women managed to run away, leaving the teenage girl behind. And that's when the deceased allegedly raped her,” said police spokesperson, Col Moatshe Ngoepe.

Alexandra man attacked with an axe by 'mob' in ongoing eviction saga'They hit me with sticks and the one guy used an axe to hit me at the back of my head. They were saying to me that this house is now theirs. When I woke up I found that I was covered in blood and on the ground.' I'm not condoning the assault but I have a question, how did a Zimbo get an RDP meant for the poorest of the poor in SA? An episode of Kukithi La which was aired in channel 157 the past two weeks were looking into the occupation of these properties by people who don't qualify It may be time to move to a better neighbourhood friend. He applied for the house in 1996. Some native SAfricans are yet to get houses. How did he manage to fast track his name on the list. On what grounds did he qualify as he was surely not SAfrican citizen citizen in 1996? Pulling a victim card when the victims are legitimate SA 😦😦
