Sleeping Serowe woman attacked, robbed, raped

Investigating the case, Serowe Police Station commander, Superintendent Poloko Oteng said the intruder committed the offence while threatening the victim with a knife. “Before fleeing the crime scene the unknown suspect also stole the victim’s mobile phone. Investigations into the matter are ongoing to locate the suspect who is still at large,” he said.
