Officer Commanding, Senior Superintendent Paul Oketsang said they are investigating the case adding they have launched a search to arrest the unknown suspect. He said the horrific incident occurred at around 3am.

He stated that the intruder found students in their sleep, knocked and instructed them to open the door.

“They allegedly kept quiet pretending to be asleep up until he threatened to set the dormitory on fire,” Oketsang said.

“That is when one of them, a 13-year-old girl, opened the door and he grabbed and raped her. He is reported to have continued doing so until he ended up raping two more girls aged 13 and 12 and fled the crime scene.”

Oketsang added the students could not identify him because he had covered his face with a mask, but investigations are ongoing to locate and arrest him. He added that the learners have identified the intruder as a short man with pimples.
