Teen girls' nights out end in multiple arrests

According to Letlhakane Police Station Commander, Superintendent Michael Maphephu, they have arrested three males aged between 18 and 26 years in connection to defiling the teenage girls.

He said all the victims, 17, were brought in by their parents to their police station after spending their nights out with their ‘boyfriends’. “The victims are reported to have spent nights out at the suspects' houses on different occasions, but upon arrival at home, one of the parents took their child to the police station,” he added. Maphephu stated that the incidents took place between April 7 and 9 at Khwee settlement and Letlhakane village respectively.
