Two foreign nationals are being hunted by the Allanridge police after a man was assaulted and gang raped in Nyakallong.
On 3 August a 31-year-old bank employee from Bothaville visited taverns in Nyakallong. At one of these taverns he met two unknown men.
When the tavern closed, the men all decided to walk to a nearby house next to a local vehicle service business.
When they arrived at the house, the foreign nationals hit the victim with wooden sticks. They had knives and threatened to set him alight. After pleading to not be set alight, they raped him.
He lost consciousness when the attackers again assaulted him with wooden sticks. He was found by a passerby and the incident was reported to the Allanridge Police Station.
A case of rape was registered for further investigation. Anyone with information to help the police trace these suspects can contact Det. Const. Malearongwa Mokoena of Welkom Family Violence, Child Protection and Sexual Offences unit on 067-703-0610 or the Crime Stop number 08600-10111.
