The teen girl, who is a pupil at one of the primary schools in Tlokweng, was allegedly raped by her cousin’s ex-boyfriend on Saturday morning.

When confirming the investigation, Tlokweng Police Station commander, Superintendent Unoziba Rari said they received the report of the incident on Saturday at around 1am.

Narrating what transpired, Rari said the victim and her 18-year-old cousin said they were walking from a bar when the suspect pounced on them, grabbed them and dragged them to the nearest unfinished structure, tied them up and raped the victim. “They further claimed that after raping the teenage girl the suspect untied them and escape the crime scene.

Investigations into the matter are ongoing to locate the suspect who is still at large,” Rari said.
